Code review comment for lp:~parthm/bzr/503670-vila-grep-as-builtin

I think it's reasonable to have a selfcontained grep, so that
 * it can efficiently search history
 * it's easier for windows users

Building on Python's re module a basic grep should be very small.

I don't strongly care if this is in a plugin or core. I don't think
core needs to be minimal and I don't think it needs to be maximal and
merge every useful feature.

It would be nice to also have the option to pipe files through an
external grep so people can get extra features from grep.
