This is too simple.  There have been many times in the CVS days when I tried 
to commit a change only to find out there was a conflict (usually ChangeLog). 
  So I always merge from upstream before committing to upstream.  So what you 
are saying is in fact, there are no quick fixes.

What starts out as a (presumed) quickfix often turns in to a week/month long 
fix.  To assume that one can always beforehand descide if one is about to do a 
quickfix or not is also too simple minded.

Bzr feels very strange and uncomfortable.  It is workable, but not smooth or 
elegant, just kind of icky.
