My personal feeling was that "--local" meant "don't mess with the master
branch". So for *me* "bzr commit --local" shouldn't care whether it was
bound or not, just commit in the local branch.
I suppose it was meant as a check in case people thought they could use
'--local' in a lightweight checkout.
