Jesse Glick commented on Bug JENKINS-27316

we are peeking at the Workflow plugin set for a next revision of that

Workflow is not a substitute for Job DSL. They are more or less orthogonal.

changesets built that don't exist on our central server

This is something that could be supported as a “branch source” in the Multi-Branch API, I think. (For example, the Git implementation has support for pull requests, which are hosted in a distinct repository.) Someone needs to write that branch source but I think it is a relatively minor exercise—the API does not require in-depth Jenkins plugin expertise.

if we had to create a branch build

That is the point of the Multi-Branch API: the creation of the subprojects (and their “garbage collection”) is automated.

difficult or not in the direction you want to take

No, this is a valid bug report, I was just offering tangential suggestions based on your use case. I am not promising to implement it (assuming you are not a CloudBees support customer), but a pull request would be welcome.
