Incorrect auto-detection. (Fairly common, Mac hasn't traditionally
detected well, neither FreeBSD, etc.)

Output to a file.

bzr log | less

bzr log > content.txt

(On Windows, the former should probably use Terminal encoding, but the
later should use locale.getpreferredencoding())

I think the big thing is having this as a step along the way to being
able to supply it on a per-command basis.
