Bazaar for SVN-Bazaar-SVN development?

Hi!

What I am about to ask is related to SVK, but I'm not doing feature 
comparisons here...

What I am doing now is that if I want to do offline Subversion 
development, this is what I do:

   1. The Subversion repository is hosted remotely
   2. I created a local Subversion repository
   3. I create an SVK depot, which has two mirrors: the remote
      Subversion, and the local Subversion
   4. I merge from remote to local Subversion repository, using SVK's help
   5. During development I use regular Subversion tools (subclipse,
      netBeans, tortoise, anything)
   6. When I'm ready to push or pull changes I merge between remote &
      local with the help of SVK

That development workflow is to me, very practical and I really like it 
now. The reason is it allows me to work with all Subversion tools, I 
don't have to wait long times just to do a commit. And when it's time to 
take coffee break, I'll sync/push/pull the repositories for good. :-)

What I want to ask is, is that development workflow appropriate using 
Bazaar?

So, in my view, Bazaar can also be used as "middle-man" between two 
Subversion repositories (remote & local). However I'm not sure if 
anybody has done this before.. I would appreciate testimonials...

In case anyone interested about my SVK workflow, feel free to contact 
me. I might even write a blog post about it just for you. (SVK's typical 
workflow uses only one mirror, and uses SVK tools and commands, not 
Subversion's; so my approach is rather in the narrow market)

(PS: I'm not an SVK developer nor evangelist, I'm just trying to find a 
nice distributed development approach that makes it easier for all our 
team members...)
