Daniel,

The threads discussing this feature are enormous, which leads me
to assume that quite a bit of thought has gone into this.

One thread I could find starts here:
http://subversion.tigris.org/servlets/ReadMsg?listName=dev&msgNo=131499
but it seems not to be the only one where the character was discussed.

Note that the thread is over half a year old! So please let's not roll
this discussion back up from the beginning without thorough research
about why and how the decision for '^' was made.

(I use zsh, too.)
