One of the reasons why I want to improve and recommend 'bzr commit' is that
when using UDD, bzr is your front-end for most of the work.  It seems jarring
to have to remember to switch to debcommit for a step.  Perhaps OTOH,
debcommit should be recommended everywhere, but then, that seems jarring to
someone used to using bzr.  (We already recommended dch but that doesn't seem
as bad because it doesn't really mirror a standard bzr command.)
