Apologies for following up to myself, but my reply could probably have been
more helpful.  I'd recommend adding a version of the following 2 items to
the FAQ:

Q: Bazaar seems to have many different repository formats - how do I know
which one to choose?
A: [A version of Rob's decision tree, but this would need to be maintained
as new formats are added]

Q: Why does Bazaar have so many formats compared to other DVCSs?  Isn't this
evidence that Bazaar is yet to mature and stabilize on a format that meets
all requirements?
A: [...]

Cheers,

Mark
