I wonder if it would be a good idea to implement a new feature that
would be half way between per-branch push permission and emailing
bundles ?

Example, we could add a command that would work exactly like a bundle,
(may be 'fossil bundle push' ?) but instead to generate a file locally
and email it, the user could push it to the remote and it could appear
like an attached bundle on the remote repository. That way, the
instructor could publish if he like the changes or purge it he doesn't.

What do you think ?
