Bug Description
Currently the revision of the base branch for a recipe build is specified on the SPRecipe itself (as part of the base_branch specification), but it seems that it would make much more sense (from a users POV), if instead when creating a recipe via the LP UI we always used tip on the recipe (ie. no revision spec on the base branch), and while still allowing the user to specify a revision spec storing it on the SPRBuild.
This would involve adding a base_branch_
Thoughts? (Idea via beuno's suggestion on mailing list).

Um, I think the usual value for the sourcepackagere cipedata. revspec for a recipe will be empty, i.e. the tip of the branch will be used.
Maybe I'm being dense on a Friday afternoon, but I don't think there's a bug here.
