That is being addressed with Subversion 1.5 and the merge tracking
feature. In Subclipse's history view there is a new Merged Revisions
column in the history view. You will see the revision you merged, and
then on the same line it will list all the revisions that were merged
in. You can then take an option to see the details of all of those
revisions.
