Light goes on.  Okay.  So a bzr "branch" is only ever editable on a 
single machine.  So there is no distributed development on top of a 
bzr "branch".  Everyone else just has read-only copies of it.  In this
way you ensure that there is never a conflict of the revno's.  I'm not
sure of the ramifications of this but at least I get where you're coming
from now.
