I think it should be .bzr by default. It works very well when using commands
like these in your project root:

  grep -r -i somestring *

If the bzr directory was called _bzr, the * glob would've matched _bzr too,
resulting in lots of irrelevant results in files you don't want to see. This
is a thing I really, really, really like about bzr: it does NOT get in your
way and Just Works [tm].

Perhaps bzr can look for _bzr directories if .bzr was not found, so that is
supports both. For branching/pushing maybe a configuration option will be
useful.
