It produces a different command line because it asks for a newer
revision.  Maybe for the default revision the result will be the same,
but I need to specify the command line exactly as I want, and sometimes
add more switches.  For example, switching between context and unified
formats is a pain.  You have to manually change the value of the variable
`vc-bzr-diff-switches' before typing `C-x v ='.

I think, `rgrep' has a good UI for this functionality where
`C-u rgrep' asks for common options and before running the
constructed command allows to edit it.  And `C-u C-u rgrep'
allows to write the command line immediately.

Is this UI desirable for VC?
