I believe the only normally visible change from my proposal is that   
git-submodule update will follow top-level's branch from 
branch.<name>.remote, which is a good thing. The other changes are only 
visible if using clone -o or otherwise explicitly asking that "origin" 
not be used or defined, which again is actually following the user's 
request.

If you know of other effects, please explain them.
