In a number of cases, darcs /does/ recurse up the tree looking for a
_darcs directory. What specific use-cases do you feel aren't adequetely
addressed? Are you thinking something like this should be supported:
$ cd /
# Although the current directory isn't a darcs repo
# darcs will recurse up from file.txt to look for repos.
$ darcs diff /home/john/proj/file.txt
