Good integration in Emacs. Almost everything can be done from within the editor
Bookmark manager. Keep the most frequently used arch locations in your bookmark buffer.
Integration of ediff, Emacs's graphical diff tool. (Even outside Xtla it's great, you should try it.

To view and resolve conflicts after a merge.
Interface to view missing patches from all your partners with a single command
