I think I miss understand something, I apologize if I'm turning in
round, the "branch name" is not directly related to the distribution
name, isn't it?

The debian/changelog distribution field is UNRELEASED or unstable and
the user can change it by editing the file[1].

The branch name can be whatever use want, like ebo for etch-backports
for example.

I think having on base-DIST-ARCH per distribution I maintain is more
useful than per branch name.

I can have many branches for on distribution (aka topic branches), their
debian/changelog seems more relevant to me than the branch name.

Regards.
