Hello all :)

So, I did a branch lately using the latest, beautiful 0.7, and ran
into a bit of a problem. The branch is large-- many, many files-- and if
i click on the revision it is a very unpleasant experience. Can there be
some kind of threshold where by if more then X number of 'adds' are in a
revision it'll take an extra click/link to see them, so you only see the
modifieds and everything else?

Or something?

Hehe, "a very unpleasant experience"... odour included. :-P

Adding 'paging' throughout Trac (not just for the Log viewer) is actually
planned for 0.8.

It actually ended up crashing IE! That's not saying a lot, my
work computer is fairly pitiful. :)

Hmn. Can you give me some details about just what sort of
'paging' is planned? Will its threshold be configurable? Except for in
the most extreme of cases-- and never in a wiki page-- I'd actually not
want it to page at all. This is just one of those extreme cases that bit
me.
