Might be better to include a configuration option to allow this, for
those
that know what they're doing. Most of the people that know what they're
doing will use the command line, anyway, but it may irritate some people.

I considered that but found my tcl fu was seriously lacking.  These
are literally the first 3 lines of tcl I ever wrote in my life, and
this program is one huge 11,000+ line monolith, so I'm naturally
scared to make more than very, very, small changes :)

In any case, as you said, most people who know what they're doing can
use the CLI to get there anyway...

Hm, now that I think about it, what might be better is to just do what
should be done for them. :P

So instead of invoking 'git checkout REMOTE/BRANCH', do 'git checkout -b
BRANCH REMOTE/BRANCH'.

I know you said, you don't know, tcl, but just throwing it out there for
anyone else.

Cheers,
Tim.
