It just seemed a bit confusing, but I'm ok with them here as well.

I will remove the "\n" and fix the "Import revision" print. Speaking of that one: this is only printed if "not self.silent". Is there a particular reason to have "self.silent" and "self.verbose"? Should we merge the two?

self.silent and self.verbose seem like two slightly different things. I would expect silent to prevent any output at all. But actually it doesn't.

If we wanted to implement it properly, I think we'd need a new function (p4print?) which did the obvious right thing. Maybe something for a rainy day in the future.

Will that breaker older versions of python? There's a statement somewhere about how far back we support.
