Structuring user hints on series without branch

Bug Description

I marked a series ( https://edge.launchpad.net/cassiopeia/test ) as obsolete and removed the assigned branch for it.

I have some improvement suggestions for the user hints you can see on that page above, see attachment. I think the nested "if..else...or...if..." is quite confusing, a simple indention and some bullets could certainly clear up things.

As you can see in the attachment, I suggested to delete a very misunderstandable sentence:
"You can push a branch to Launchpad for this project with the name trunk using a command line like:
bzr push lp:~tiefflieger/cassiopeia/trunk"
1. The name of the project is "cassiopeia", not "trunk" ( "[...] for this project with the name trunk [...]")
2. What the suggested command does: It pushes a local branch to a (not existant? or is it automatically mapped to lp:cassiopeia?) "trunk" branch of the project "cassiopeia". That has absolutely no connection to the series or the branch this series has been assigned to.
Instead I'd like to suggest to give a much shorter, but series-specific user hint, see red text in attachment.

Thanks for Launchpad!
