I don't know how the old VC worked as I always was a fan of PCL-CVS and
later of psvn. Maybe it was a great convenience to use C-x v v C-x b
instead of VC-dir to see all edited files and apply the same operation
to all files or to a subset of them. But right now VC-dir works very
well with Bazaar on the centralized workflow and Dan is being very quick
fixing the few bugs that arise and adding features.

Maybe I'm missing some piece of VC wizardly that is a pet feature of
Emacs hackers and that still clashes with changeset-oriented VCS ?
