I've got this working now, with some nice cleanups to the XML handling
along the way.  There's a new `be import-xml` command which replaces
and extends the old `be comment --xml` command and is used to import
the xml that `be email-bugs` sends over.

Still to go: improve `be import-xml` to gracefully merge changes in
bugs and comments that exist in both the repository and the incoming
XML.  This will probably take me a few days, but I think it's worth
pushing back the release until we get this working.

Thoughts?
(especially with regards to merge algorithms ;)
