Comment (by lewisbaker at users.sourceforge.net):

 I think that in order to support a `Changeset.MERGE` type you need to be
 able to specify a list of node revision ranges that were merged as part of
 the change. Whether this is part of the `Changeset.get_changes()` or
 `Node.get_history()` APIs or as a `Changeset` or `Node` property is an
 implementation detail, I guess.

 However, it would be best if there was a well-known place to retrieve this
 info so that the `web_ui` module is able to display this information in
 similar way to the ''copied from <path>'' information in the changeset and
 log views.
