This change would resemble the behavior of the fusefs command which requires a directory name argument.

This definitely hoses every script that calls open, but that's intentional since the goal is to force the (inexperienced) user to confirm that he really wants to open into the current directory.  For current Fossil, a compromise form could be implemented which defaults the directory to ".", but Fossil 2.0 would remove the default.

On the mailing list, David Given [suggested] (http://www.mail-archive.com/fossil-users@lists.fossil-scm.org/msg19388.html) making the default directory name derive from the repository name.  I suppose this means stripping a ".fossil" suffix, though there is no requirement that Fossil repository filenames follow any particular convention.

David also suggested allowing open's argument to be a URL, in which case it would clone the repository, make a directory for it, and open into the directory.  It's not clear what the local repository filename would be, where to store it, and where to open it.  A convention could be established to handle these things.

# Merge /dir and /tree

It's unclear why these are separate.  I advocate merging the code.  Whichever one gets axed could be made to redirect to the other.
