If this is what you had in mind, then it's still manual work, and
thus prone to errors.  I can do the same in a bound branch with
"bzr ci FILE1 FILE2 ...", thus "cherrypicking" only what should be
pushed.

The original problem was that some people do not pay attention to what
"bzr status" says, and just do a "bzr ci", which pushes all the
modified files.  I guess there's no way around vigilance.  Which is
fine with me.

Thanks.
