Bug Description
Bazaar fails like so when trying to run a message editor on Windows.
By default you only get a short message, but for such a confusing thing we should either explicitly say "failed to run $program: $reason" or treat it as a crash. Probably the former.

I asked in the question https:/ /answers. edge.launchpad. net/bzr/ +question/ 80945 what editor juliec was trying to run here.
On Windows we perhaps should ask using readline or something because running an editor in the terminal is unlikely to work by default?
