 If you can come up with a clear an concrete case where/why this is
needed, why not. But unless absolutely necessary I prefer not having
to handle this, I honnestly don't see the point, though I see the
associated cost. For the moment all of my new developments are outside
CVS, so it's already the case, but once I decide it's ripe enough 
for propagation I really do want to avoid branch maintainance (or to
put it frankly, I won't manage any branch myself).
