That could be, tho I haven't thought much about it yet.
But note that in the context of Bzr, those questions don't have the same
importance&meaning as within CVS.  After all, creating a branch is
nothing else than cloning, so initially the new branch is absolutely
identical to the "parent".
I expect at some point we'll do something like:

  (cd pending; bzr merge ../trunk; bzr commit)
  mv trunk emacs-23.2
  mv pending trunk

or maybe

  bzr clone trunk emacs-23.2
  (cd trunk; bzr merge ../pending; bzr commit)
  rm -rf pending
