That's certainly a reasonable request, if that's not already supplied by
BzrDir.

That's not the right dichotomy.  A metadir branch may be standalone.

A standalone branch is one whose repository, branch and working tree are
all stored in the same .bzr.  A metadir is a .bzr format that may or may
not contain a standalone branch.  Earlier formats could only contain
standalone branches.
