If Launchpad were performing forks, we could presumably avoid scanning the branch immediately after forking, since the new branch will be an exact copy of the old one. When we create the sourcepackage branches for a new distro, using such a facility would be a great advantage, because it would remove the need to scan thousands of branches immediately.
