The notes about Launchpad/PQM/BB integration seem to me to stress this
in a way which is at odds with what I've seen elsewhere, namely to
make a point of clarifying that Bazaar does not require you to use
Launchpad, etc. There is still a very mixed message being presented
over whether Launchpad is a "feature" of Bazaar or not.

As someone who only intends to use any DVCS for personal projects in
the immediate future, seeing a discussion of a "cleaner UI" (in the
bzr/hg document) right next to a list of integration features I never
expect to use, is a little ironic...

Paul.
