Ok I might have missed the plot... but won't this affect people doing
work with a remote archive? Ie make checkins/updates/etc orders of
magnitude slower?

Ok so one solution is to tell them to make a local branch... but that
does remove some of Arch's flexibility.

If I have got the wrong end of the stick, then forgive me, otherwise I
would definately like to see arch retain a choice to use 'local'
pristine trees OR archive revision libs - perhaps a default can be based
from the archive location method (local verses ftp/sftp/http).
