No, that's a fairly strange thing to do.  If your commit had succeeded,
it would have updated trunk.  So why not just work in trunk directly?

It looks like my_work was intended to be a new branch, so "branch" would
be the right command, not "checkout".

If you did work in a checkout, you would normally use a lightweight
checkout, not a heavyweight checkout, because you have low-latency
access to trunk and its repository.

So no, we haven't considered this an important issue, though it would be
nice to fix.
