Bug Description
We can do:
bzr init foo & bzr pull -d foo foo.patch
but that's not as natural (and IIRC someone complained that bundles are presented as self-contained branches, so adding support will enhance coherency)

This would certainly be useful when eg wanting to pick up on some work posted to bundle buggy.
As a workaround, you can init a branch and then pull into it.
I investigated adding this, similarly to what's done in cmd_pull. It could be done by copying a little bit of code that checks first whether there's a bundle there, but it might be nice to instead make bundles act more like readonly branches to avoid duplication.
