I do personally consider bzr's lack of a copy function as a bug, but it's one
of minimal impact to daily work.  Meaning, I rarely have to copy files and
when I do `cp foo bar; bzr add bar` is an easy enough workaround.

It's kind of in that middle ground, not like `touch` which as a Python
programmer I have to do all the time. :)
