Bug Description
When you 'branch as a new project' the dialogue says 'Select the source branch', and the options are 'Initialize a new branch location' and 'Use existing branch location'. As a relatively new user to bzr and the eclipse plugin, I have no idea what this means. I'm trying to branch from a remote repository, so I guess I 'use existing branch location'. But then 'next' and 'finish' vanish. 'Initialize' is my only option.
And then, a step or two later, I can't go 'next' or 'finish' anyway. Only back or cancel.
Note that I'm using the latest trunk, so I may be hitting incomplete features, but please consider putting a bit of context help in the dialogues. It's not usually clear what the prompts mean.

Thanks for reporting this!
Sure, bzr-eclipse should provide context help in the wizard using the embedded help or at least via tooltips
