Nice, your argumentation is pretty convincing. I just guess that we're
going to have lots of "I'd love to see branches in OE" votes in this
thread, and I'd just love to see them treated separately from "I need
branches", "I'm ok with using branches for my changes", "Branches are
going to complicate my work, but I might try", and "I hate branches - I
already barely have time to do real work" votes.
