What about adding the branch to the document, but as 'unconfirmed'? This kind of branch could appear in branch settings, with the possibility to actually add it. The global idea is to allow unknown branches, with the convention that they are disabled, and to allow easily to create those branches in document settings. I feel this would solve many branch-related problems (like with child documents). JMarc
