It looks interesting, but I haven't tried it, because as you say, it
converts your branches so that you can only use them with the loom
plugin afterwards. Also, development on the loom plugin seems to have
stalled, to no surprise of anyone.

I'm already worried enough that the CEDET repository seems to be locked
inside bzr with no available conversion, so I'm not eager to further
complicate things.  I'm really hoping that with Richard weighing in,
things will improve again.  I think our time is better spend then
switching yet again to another VCS.
