Bug Description

We'd like to add support for using meld for viewing diffs. Aaron Bentley has a branch of bzr-gtk that does this by integrating meld into bzr-gtk. It'd be nicer if we could simply use an existing meld
installation.

This will require changes in meld as well.

I have some proof of concept code for integrating Meld. I have to adjust it to use bzrlib, and it'll be fine.

Using an existing meld installation or does it require patching meld?

It doesn't require patching Meld, so I think we can reject this one as a Meld bug...

By using existing meld installation, it will not work for windows users.

I'm not sure if I should report another bug. Here's my problem:
When I use nautilus-bzr integration and use the "view changes" context-menu I'd like to use meld instead of the graphical diff that comes with bzr-gtk. Meld already has bzr support so the only thing we need is a (hidden) option to use a different diff tool.
