- - you can have working trees on local systems while having the
 repository on a remote system.  This makes it easy to work on one
 logical branch from multiple locations, without getting out of sync.

That is a very nice feature.  Git would be improved if it could
support that mode of operation as well.

It would also make things slow as hell. How do you deal with something 
like annotate in such a setup?

For the particular case of annotate, bzr is designed to store
annotations at commit time.  So annotate should require remote access to
a small amount of data from two files-- not a great cost.

But our default form of checkout contains a local copy of all history
data, so that readonly operations happen at local speed.
