It would be nice if even lowish-level things like abrowse supported it
where appropriate though.
[but I think the concept of `hidden' branches might still be useful,
since one can't really rename branches to `move them out of the way']

Since these names really _are_ just branch names, I think it would be
quite annoying for them not to be supported by tla directly.
Of course, it might be possible to just have tla support multiple
namespaces, the current `low level' namespace, plus a hierarchical
namespace of pointers into into the low-level namespace (kind of like
CVS supports both -rX.Y and -rTAG). As long as they were easily
distinguishable syntactically, the UI shouldn't be much problem, and
presumably any embedded names like in CONTINUATIONs would reference the
low-level namespace, so it would be OK to make the hierarchical
namespace mutable.
... or something. :-)
It all starts to sound a bit excessively complicated...
