reassign 390458 baz-load-dirs
severity important
retitle 390458 baz-load-dirs should be re-added now that bazaar is in testing 
again
thanks

Marc,

I see that bazaar is now back into testing.

I only presently use darcs out of all the VCS supported by *-load-dirs.
All the others are maintained based on patches that people send in.  I
have always been clear that if some VCS I don't use stops working, I
will remove it to prevent all the others from suffering the same fate.
This happened with baz-load-dirs.

It is completely wrong to file a grave bug against a different package
just because some other package you liked was removed.

I really feel that this is wishlist, but I'll set it to important for
now.
