Perhaps some parallelism or commit-triggered bzr->git mirroring could help keep the delays down. I don't think we need to get excessively clever unless it actually proves to be a problem, though. Does the git protocol allow the server to send arbitrary messages for presentation to the user? "Your patch is very important to us.

I think I'd rather have the interactive delay. If it proves to be too much, I can simply bury that window and look at it later. Ken
