Unfortunatly quite often, as I have to access old revisions files. The
only reasonable way to do that seems to be to go from the revisions
(monotone cat revision), to the manifest (monotone cat manifest) and
than to the file (monotone cat file). Quite horrible.

Fine with me. The aliases or abbrevations must not necessaryl be stored
in the database.
