I'd like to just completely remove the 'push to the branch we bind to'
logic.

Given that we have bzr push and bzr commit both able to push into the
master, it seems like bind is serving two masters : it is establishing
the link, and it is performing update and push as well. I think bind
should *just* establish the link - like unbind *just* breaks it.
