What's in the trash

I think we could do this by extending log with a --status-flags option. The value would be a set of letters as listed by bzr help status-flags. The output would implicitly include deltas (like -v).

To fine all deletions, you could then do something like:

  bzr log --status-flags D

Additions, renames and deletes of file foo...

  bzr log --status-flags NRD foo

In the latter case, the delta should be filtered to only show the specified file(s).

I have updated the bzr-undelete plugin with --find option which
looks through last N commits for file names matching the
specified regex.

Its doesn't specifically look for deleted files but may be useful in
this scenario. The use case I had in mind was that if we don't
remember the name of the deleted file, we find it with the regex
and then issue the undelete command if needed.
