 I agree and I am thinking the default branching rule should be to do the
 obvious thing
 in the following cases:

 {{{
 (1) Restriction is to a Levi subgroup or
 (2) The two representations are both standard representations,
        e.g. O(n) -> SL(n).
 (3) O(n) -> O(n-1) and Sp(2n) -> Sp(2n-2)
 }}}
 That might be enough for an initial implementation.
