I'm happy with the change (+1), and think it is reasonable to get it
into bzr-0.10. I'm not sure if we'll backport an 0.9, considering
0.10-rc1 is set for release on Monday.

I changed the subject to hopefully make it obvious that this should be
merged.

Also, we generally use the [MERGE] syntax, rather than [bundle]. Bundle
is just an implementation detail.
