This branch is dependent on:
(*) the branch I'm proposing it be merged into (<branch ID updated using JavaScript>)
( ) Another branch: [________________________]
However, It's not clear to me why you need to specify the dependent branch at all. Doesn't Launchpad know that already? And even if it doesn't, what relevance does it have to a merge proposal? I'm asking this not out of a wish to see this section of the form gone, but to understand what its labels should be.
A mundane refactoring would be:
