The Hidden "Find Changesets" Dialog

As I was browsing through Buck Hodges' blog the other day, I discovered two very cool features of the Team System UI that were new to me. Not very discoverable features, obviously.. but useful ones!

Hidden UI Feature #1: The Edit, Go To menu in Source Control Explorer. Or, CTRL+G.

I had no idea the Find Changesets dialog was available from Source Explorer! It's a generic query mechanism for changesets: by file or folder name, by user, by number, etcetera.

Hidden UI feature #2: double-click the Source Control node in Team Explorer while holding Shift. This opens the Pending Changes window. Not earth shattering, but a nice shortcut.
