It's mentioned in the Tutorial under Limitations.  I suggest using ``bzr 
switch --force`` there.  From the root of the checkout, you can use 
relative paths ``bzr switch --force ./.bzr/branches/trunk``.

Because I'd like my plugins to be installable with distutils and it's 
easier to get a .py file installed than a .txt file.  Patches to use 
package_data are welcome.
