In Bazaar's bound branch or checkout model, the commit is made to the 
remote branch before the commit in the local branch.  I don't think that 
either ordering is at elevated risk of data loss (since the commit must 
succeed one place first) but that committing remote then local preserves 
the idea that the local branch is a mirror of the remote branch.  That 
was what I was trying to get at.
