[>>JTS: ] You are correct and I made a mistake in my reply (looked too 
quickly). The M gives you one chance to indicate a NBC change in a branch. 
After that you no longer know (i.e. no worse than no revision label at all).
it is a compromise that allows:
- knowledge about the nature of changes on a branch that hasn't been poisoned 
yet
- one chance to alert users that an NBC change was made on a branch
That is useful enough to have it IMO.
