So... I'm a bit iffy on this. For example when using "bzr+ssh" we do:

ssh host bzr serve --inet --allow-writes --directory=/

It doesn't really fit to do:

ssh host bzr serve --inet --allow-anonymous-writes --directory=/

1) It will break launchpad (until the changes are merged, and the ssh
server updated to allow that string)
2) It *is* anonymous, except that you've already authenticated...

I understand the desire behind being clear about it for "bzr serve" to
bring up the http/bzr:// access. I just worry about some of the fallout.

(I'm not blocking, just bringing up the discussion.)
