FWIW, 'dch -r && debcommit -r' is a bit of black magic that doesn't seem
well-covered in the documentation.  Or, perhaps more accurately, it wasn't
stressed enough to make it onto my radar before this thread.

Maybe it would be more discoverable as 'bzr release' instead of 'bzr
mark-upload' or 'dch -r && debcommit -r'?
