Well, that's not quite true anymore. I've added the menu entry "edit
conflicts" and "show log" in the last commits.
But what's still wrong:
doubleclicking on a conflicted entry does "edit conflicts", but the
default context menu entry still would be "show diff".

So that's the only thing which needs changing now.

You could compare with HEAD, compare with BASE or ask for a specific
revision and compare with that revision then. So I think it really
should stay "compare with working copy".
