The hg queue (which I think confused you most) is basically dead. It's
a nuisance to review and change patches of patches.

What differences between darcs and hg are problematic for you?

I suppose deprecating Mercurial queues is an important step in that
direction.

Maintaining CVS-like branches is awkward, so the only practically
feasible model that is also well-supported by Bitbucket are full
clones (i.e. branching by cloning).

Perhaps Stephen can contribute something here, too.

In fact I'm doing almost all of it right now...
