I didn't feel like it was worth the extra parameter to
run_bzr_subprocess, and writing a plugin, and then compiling that plugin
to .pyo or .pyc, and making sure only one was available. And testing
that bzr does or does not load the plugin under the specific circumstances.

Yes, it is possible. It isn't even that hard to do. But it is a lot of
work for a small bugfix. And writing the tests wasn't worth doing before
0.9.

I'm actually working on making branch over sftp faster, as there is
actually quite a bit of latency we can exploit. And that is time much
better spent.
