Good point; I think that bzr webserver should support the following syntax:

# for a standalone branch
$ bzr webserve [ <name> [ <branch path>] 

or

# for a shared repo + a branch
$ bzr webserve --repo <repopath> <name> <branch-under-repo> \
	[ <name> <branch-under-repo> [...]]

So the user knows which data webserve is able to provide.
