There was some discussion initially about doing "branch discussions" in
the same way that we do bug comments, however this would have some
difficult implications. If you think you really want a public-writable
whiteboard for branches, I would be glad to braindump a few possible
tracks and their respective issues.

I think your use case would be better served by Launchpad displaying the
branches that fully merge the branch being displayed, as suggested in
this bug:

https://launchpad.net/products/launchpad-bazaar/+bug/30668

It would be easy to provide a naive implementation of that if we start
by implementing complete-branch-revision:

What do you think?
