Hability to query file contents (grep-like)
It would be nice to be able to search database files for their contents, and accross history.
I am picturing a use case where a user would like to download the last changeset before a particular piece of source code was deleted, for instance. The user could search the repository for files containing that particular text, and the server would return the file names, and perhaps the first and last changesets where the text still appeared in the file.

You can already do that with a little bit of scripting.
Why don't you use the "cm ls --tree" and "cm cat" commands to do that? You can use CmdRunner on top of "cm shell" to make it fly. http://codicesoftware.blogspot.com/2012/01/cmdrunner-power.html
