I agree. I think 'bzr rm' should remove things - keeping backups is a
nice thing we can do without distorting the commands behaviour. We can
look at special casing some of the corner cases (like an
added-but-not-commited-file), but I don't think that that is needed.

Having a seperate command to unversion things could be good too, though
I'm happy with 'bzr rm --keep' as a way to express that.
