That doesn't look to me on first glance like something that should  
ever be seen by the user (i.e. the developer who might submit change  
sets or projects to be reviewed for possible inclusion in an upcoming  
release).

It might be a good foundation tool, but it's not really anything I'd  
want to ever use directly I don't think.

What would it take to build a proper configuration management and  
release management tool on top of MC, SUnit, and maybe this Tasks thing?

I'm thinking of something more along the lines of "Aegis" with multi- 
level commits and enforced unit tests, etc., etc., etc....
