This seems like an explicit design decision (since we have an explicit "cannot create anything but .bzr" error message).

However, somebody didn't realize how we do upgrades. I would rather not have a "--no-backup" because then if the upgrade fails midway through (disconnected net access) you potentially have corrupted your branch completely, and have no easy way to fix it.
