Sounds like recipes:

With the addition of some fixes to the packaging in trunk, launchpad 
will also automatically build recipes for you. See working example here:

The problem with not having a coordinating branch is that when two merge 
requests conflict, there's no place to resolve the conflict and commit 
the result. Building a recipe in this case is impossible.
