It is possible that I did not pay enough attention during hg migration
discussions, but I don't remember seeing any call for feature branches
to be preserved.   Did anyone ever post a list of feature branches to
be dropped during hg migration?  How would developers know that they
would need to "opt-in" for their work to be preserved?  Given the
unforgiving nature of hg when it comes to altering history, I don't
think sufficient notice was given when the decision to trim the
history was made.
