Want! We're currently going the route of naming the branches
  master
  feature/master
  feature/subfeature/master
to allow feature/subfeature/topic, and feature/subfeature in the first place.

(Other hierarchy separator candidates were ugly, shell-unwieldy, already commonly used within branch names, or illegal.)
