I have written a small patch for the convert command that will ask the 
commit message using the default editor, before a new transaction is 
committed on the destination repository.

If the user returns an empty message, then the converter will stop being 
"interactive".

The patch is against the crew repository.


I have attached the patch (sorry if patchs are not allowed, or if it 
should be posted on the developer mailing list).
