Great, this is a feature I was looking for! Can we in a clean way disable
feature if the project is not based on bzr? I will look at the code.

Ok, so at least at the beginning, may we make a reboot quickly version
without launchpad? I will work on this, my employer offered me to work on
this project with part of my working time because I'm using it in a
project. Really I don't want to miss this opportunity, so I think I can
give quickly a boost.

Is there a TODO with with missing features somewhere or the blog page
http://mhall119.com/2012/12/quickly-reborn/ is updated?
