bzr version command -- deprecate?

'bzr version' currently gives the version of the bzr
that you are using.

I would expect it to give the version of the branch
that you are working with, be it hello-world or whatever.

'bzr --version' is already there and gives the version of
bzr.

I propose that the version command is just dropped;
in the future it could be resurrected to give the
same sort of information as 'bzr revision-info'.


I _think_ the change could be as simple as:

=== modified file 'bzrlib/builtins.py'
--- bzrlib/builtins.py
+++ bzrlib/builtins.py
@@ -1520,12 +1520,6 @@
     print "you may use, modify and redistribute it under the terms of the GNU"
     print "General Public License version 2 or later."

-
-class cmd_version(Command):
-    """Show version of bzr."""
-    @display_command
-    def run(self):
-        show_version()

 class cmd_rocks(Command):
     """Statement of optimism."""
