I'm curious, what other remote action do you miss with hg? Push and pull (to different remote repos if needed) are sufficient for me. What am I missing?

That's a pretty standard M.O. for server-side software development. But in the case of desktop software such as Firefox I see no gain.

Well, to be fair, serialization is still performed - but interchange format is cleverly picked out to be as similar as possible to common memory representation.

I would imagine PG doesn't place much emphasis on GUI tools, being primarily hosted on Linux/BSD... Does your criticism apply to CLI tools too?
