Bug Description
When using shelve with bzr-colo, it would be nice if a shelf could be placed on the branch instead of the checkout. This would allow scoping a shelf to a branch, rather than be universal to all the branches.
I doubt this ability would make sense for non-colocated branches though.

Actually, it might also make sense when using switch with lightweight checkouts.
(I meant for this to be a wishlist, but I don't seem to have the ability to set that.)
