A warning would minimally address the issue but there would still be a behavioral inconsistency with "fossil commit --branch" which does automatically move you into the new branch. This inconsistency opens the door to confusion.
That said, I think both "fossil branch new" and "fossil commit --branch" should provide feedback as to which branch is "active". This explicit communication will help new users regardless of the decided behavior.
