(Get the code!)
Note also that my suggestion is rather maximal. If making certain options more awkward is allowed, then I'd suggest:
keep the "Mine" and "Others" tabs
collapse "Merged", "Any", and "Specific" into one search box which either takes a full URL/lp:~whatever/~whatever designation *or* a search query and intelligently identifies which is meant and Does The Right Thing (links the specified branch or shows matching search results).
This would leave only three tabs, which is potentially easier to deal with.
(My workflow is to link branches to bugs when I start working on the branch, or at worst when I push the branch and request merging to trunk. If other people tend to link up branches to bugs well after those branches hit trunk, then maybe the "Merged" tab should stay too.)
