  >   No, I don't want to specify a path prefix. remotenames() will take a path only. Do you want to say that we should allow passing full remotenames instead of just path?
  
  Yes, because a remote branch is merely a branch pulled from peer for example,
  and we'll probably want to select it by -r remotebranch("foo/bar") just like
  -r branch("foo/bar") for normal branches. Do I get it wrong? Why is it so
  important to filter by a peer path, not by a branch name itself?
