New submission from Kamil Dworakowski <kamil at dworakowski.name>:

The main use case is to find all the patches that touched a line containing the
given name.

At the moment I do it by searching inside darcs changes -v | less. Though it
seems that it would be nice to browse through the changes interactively (as in
darcs changes -i), because many times the comment of the patch will make it
clear that this patch is not interesting ('remove trailing whitespace' for
example). When searching with less one has to back search for the header of the
patch.
