[darcs-users] feature request: darcs show files for a particular rev / moment in time of repo

I would like to be able to use the flags
--match=PATTERN select a single patch matching PATTERN
-p REGEXP --patch=REGEXP select a single patch matching REGEXP
-t REGEXP --tag=REGEXP select tag matching REGEXP
for
darcs query files (aka darcs show files)
Currently, these flags work for
darcs query contents
but not files.
I think
-n N-M --index=N-M select a range of patches
makes no sense in a query files context, but I could be overlooking
something, in which case I would want that too.
The ability to get an idea of repository state at a point in time would
enable me to implement github-style repository browsing for patch-tag
I am currently looking at another way to do this, based on (ab)using
filestore library functions, but it's a bit of a kludge.
Of course, I need this mainly for doing directory listings at a
point-in-time. darcs query files for a single file should just list the file
if it exists, otherwise an error message, I think.
