I looked into this in detail when trying to solve the incompatibility
between qbzr and bzr-pipeline which were both trying to modify the merge
command. I came to the conclusion that it's not possible to do cleanly
with how bzr currently is. I started making changes to bzr to make this
possible[1], but ran out of motivation, and qbzr ended up losing some
functionality (merge --qpreview)
