Correct, that NOT the same example. I never meant to say that it...

Comming from a svn/cvs view, the setup I expect to use in the future is this

* On host "host" we have a central repo with many branches
* Each developer creates a checkout (bound branch) of the branches they want
* They all hack on it and checks in centrally each time.

Basically, that's the same as with svn.

In this setup, being able to have create a repo with branches with
working trees on each developers machine, will simply save space (and
time, since doing a new checkout will not bring down the same
revisions again).
