Yes, Bundle Buggy does do the most important things described there,
and I would not like to like without it.  But there are some things
that bb does not (yet) do, including: reporting whether a branch
merges cleanly, showing the broader context of the changes (the whole
source file with the changes highlighted), landing approved changes
into pqm, and connecting up multiple submissions so we can see only
what is new since the last release.  There is really a lot of
interesting scope for building tools on top of Bazaar.  Maybe some of
these ideas can go into bb; people at Canonical are also talking about
adding more branch features into Launchpad.
