With something like the bookmarks extension (and pushkeys) in place,
maybe a good option to implement this idea and have a wider useful
mechanism is to keep a set of "local" or "not pushed by default"
branches. It would allow avoiding replication of closed branches to
later strip them, but also keeping local side branches that could
potentially benefit users like mq, pbranch, etc.
My 2 cents,
