Bug Description

bzr status is a nice way to see whats going to be committed, but it
would be nice to have it be able to scan into subdirs that are not
versioned - as a prelude to versioning them.

Its true that 'add --dry-run' does this, but folk tend to reach for
status as the 'whats my tree-shape' tool. I propose 'status -v' know how
to scan unknown dirs and show not-ignored files from them as a
convenience.

could be nice, though it may not be the best way to do this. Someone is welcome to pick this up and give it a shot, though.
