I just uploaded a new "trivial" project in case people are interested in it.

https://launchpad.net/bzr-merge-into-gui/

It is a wxPython application, which is designed to be used as the
"default opener" for Bundles/Merge Directives/etc.

At the moment it is rather basic, but it does what I need.

I realized in discussing 'bzr send' with Aaron, that the reason I always
use BB for merging is because it is a couple clicks to copy and paste
the URL and merge it in, while doing so from Thunderbird is difficult.

So this simple gui can be started as the "Open With". And it gives me
the opportunity to select what branch I want to merge it into, and then
runs either "bzr merge" or "bzr pull --overwrite" for me.

I'd like to make it a bit fancier (at a minimum, I'd like to poll the
output and display it to the user so they know what is going on). But it
satisfies the "is it useful to me?" criteria for making it public.

I used wxPython because that is my preferred gui language, and having
proper support on Mac also hinders me doing it in GTK. Otherwise I
suppose it is the sort of widget that might make sense in bzr-gtk. I
develop the interface in wxGlade, which makes it pretty trivial to
export the single .py file.

Anyway, if anyone likes it, they are welcome to use it, give bug
reports, send patches, etc.
