Some of that is developer friction. I believe Robert is opposed to the
idea of "bound branches" because it is more complex than checkouts. I
personally like them.... I'm not entirely sure which is more simple for
users, but I can agree that a checkout with "commit --local" is not
polished sufficiently.

Perhaps a "bzr sync" which would push if it could, then pull-if-it-can,
etc. Might smooth local commits a bit. But then you are adding
yet-another command with its own quirks.
