OK, so perhaps

  bzr diff [--from BRANCH] FILE...

This would be similar behaviour to -r branch: but perhaps more obvious
syntax.  The files in the current directory are compared to their
versions in the other branch.  If you give -r with one version, it
specifies a version in the other branch; if you give it two they are the
 versions in the from and to branches.

(There might be a better name than --from.)
