bzr baz-import continue after errors

I have a couple of arch archives that were slightly corrupted. (This was
back when the cygwin version had line ending issues, and could silently
corrupt archives).

I would like to convert at least some of the branches out of that
archive, but now baz-import does complete archives, not just one branch
at a time.
So it will convert just fine until it gets to one of the corrupted
revisions, and there isn't really any way to continue.

Could we add a "--continue-on-errors" flag, which would stop importing
that specific branch if it got an error, but would still let you import
the rest?

Also, it would be nice to have a way to specify a --basis archive.
Because I have 3+ archives where I kept creating a new one year after
year, and would like to convert all of them into a bzr archive.

Since bzr likes to go as far back as it can in the history, that means
it converts the early archive multiple times.

Thanks,
John
