Andrew makes some good points about having server-related operations on
a separate menu from local-related operations.  Perforce does a good job
of collecting Client, Task, Changelist, etc operations into separate
menus.  This is handy, even if it makes some of the menus longer.

However, I have never found any reason to check my changes against the
HEAD.  As long as there's a standard diff vs. local, and a diff vs.
revision/HEAD, I'm satisfied.  If you want to add a smart diff that
checks local, then remote, then specific revisions, fine... but make
that a completely different command, because it would infuriate me to
see other people's changes when I'm trying to decide what my check-in
comment should be, and whether I want to check in a file at all.

I can't remember if SmartSVN comes this way or if I configured it, I
have double-click mapped to Diff.  It's way faster than using a context
menu, and is generally the most-used operation (for me at least).
