Yeah, that's probably true.

If we *don't* install branch-removal defenses on the server, then it's
easy enough to clean up an erroneous branch push. Only if we do that
does this scenario become a problem. I find myself agreeing with Robert
that we may be creating an issue where none exists.
At this point my vote is to leave it alone until and unless we see that
people actually make this type of mistake regularly.
