Branched history working in Visual Studio 2010 using TFS Server 2008

Visual Studio 2010 (beta 2) can be connected to an existing TFS 2008 Server.  Much of the new great stuff is then not available, quite naturally.  But I was quite positively surprised that some stuff I had not expected to work in fact did.  Which of course means it’s client stuff more than server stuff. Anyway, here comes:

History across branches:  You can now see the history of a versioned item even it started it’s life in another branch, and even if you are connected to a TFS 2008 server.

You can see that this item started out in a Development (Feature) branch, changeset 33008, but in changeset 34502 it was merged into the Main.
