In [462] Reworked the way in which confman handles opening an EDITOR for
recipe editing and log message capturing.
This implements a reasonable template for recipe files providing better
context clues to the user. See #83.
This also allows recipes to be created non-interactively. After adding
the -R flag to confman recipe create, it became obvious that unless
the svn logs could also be captured with something like -m or -F
(similar to actual svn client behavior), that things wouldn't be totally
non-interactive. A lot of rewriting of log handling has happened, touching
both the install and commit functions in addition to the recipe editor.
See #84.
Due to the large extent of these changes, let's make sure it gets a good
round of testing in several environments before we clear it to be merged
into the 1.9 branch.
The referenced tickets will remain open until the merge has happened.

I think we should support a "-F" flag with the same semantics as
svn. Or maybe we should use that for logs and support "-R" to
specify the recipe in a file?
