By the way, I wonder if accidentally identical revisions
(see example for accidental clean merge on revctrl.org)
would get the same revision id in bzr. In git they would.

They won't. The revision id is made up of the committers email address,
a timestamp and a bunch of random data. It wouldn't be hard to switch
using checksums as revids instead, but I don't think there are any plans
in that direction.

The place for timestamp and commiter info is in the revision metadata
(in commit object in git). Not in revision id. Unless you think that
"accidentally the same" doesn't happen...
