It was.

But in such cases, the parent branch is mostly useless, because you
can't pull trunk into a feature branch.  The more interesting case is
where you want to pull the feature branch from another copy of it.

You can say that, but it's doing exactly what you'd expect: --remember
overrides the default behaviour, so --no-remember restores the default
behaviour.  If you "fix" it, be sure to provide a way to get the default
behaviour the way you get with
"bzr alias merge=merge --remember; bzr merge --no-remember".

I think it -no-remember works, but you're expecting it to behave
differently from other --no- options.
