"Committing to: ..." message should include thread name

As an interesting workaround, you might configure your shell to show you "bzr nick" of where you are working. Because that will show you the name of the loom you are working on. You can do it in bash with something like:

PS1='\u@\h \w {$(bzr nick 2>/dev/null)}\n\$ '

That gives a 2-line prompt which looks like:

jameinel@host ~/working/directory {nick}
$ <your command here>

I have mine tweaked a bit to not show nick if I'm not in a directory, and to color the whole thing as I like it.

That would actually give you the information *before* you commit, rather than after.

Just a thought.

John, that is an interesting workaround. In my case I'd want it to not show the nick if the branch wasn't a loom, or perhaps just if the nick is different to the basename of the branch root directory.

Fixing this bug would wholly satisfy me though, without the need to clutter my prompt or to figure out the right magic incantations to do so efficiently :)
