I think the most important thing is that there be a good grep command, that works against bzr tip.

Next most important is that it be easily available, either in the binary installers or packaged for unix. Having it built in is just a means to that end, and not necessarily the best means.

Perhaps this bug should be recast as: bzr-grep should have a test suite, it should pass against bzr tip, and it should then be run by babune, and it should be packaged for ubuntu.

Also, it would be cool if 'bzr grep' without the plugin installed suggested 'you should install bzr-grep'. I thought someone prototyped this...
