Berny,

I agree.  One of the great things about the ClearCase CLI is the rock-solid
consistency of the output, which is absolutely essential for reliable
(trustable) scripts.  Although bzr has made some good progress in this area
recently, I am not quite ready to expect bzr command output not to change,
even between minor releases.  (I know, I would be stupid not to test anyway
when upgrading any tool, not just bzr.)  My point here is not to criticize
bzr, just to emphasize something good about ClearCase which could easily go
unnoticed.
