Comment 11 for bug 396523

In the description, where it says "in the same project as the bug", it could be read as "in the same project as the bug, or in a sibling project within the project's group", with branches in siblings being sorted later perhaps.

This might only be a problem for Launchpad development, where bugs are often filed (or refiled) against "malone" (or any of several other projects), but all branches are uploaded to "launchpad". The above behaviour might be useful for Launchpad developers, but others might find such "sibling" behaviour annoying.

In any case, @mbp's suggestion for bug numbers in the branch name would work >90% of the time for me.
