Awesome :-) The one thing I'd really like to be do many times is 
retrieve the certs associated with a particular revision. In order for 
this to be possible, a command equivalent to "monotone ls certs" would 
need to be available in an automate command.

Does anyone have any objection to such a command being added? Could 
"monotone ls certs" just be changed to "monotone automate certs"?
