Thoughts on Nested Branches: bzr init --nest?

People also version their homedir from time to time... it would be
annoying at the minimum for them to have to supply an option everytime -
it would be an unbreakme option.

'bzr init new-dir' won't cause grief in the same way that 'bzr init' in
a dir that is versioned can.

In fact, I think the only time that 'bzr init [foo]' is arguably an
error is when foo is *versioned* by a containing branch.

That should be an error and should say 'use bzr split'.
