+junk is not descriptive and sounds unprofessional, hackerish and stupid.

I find +junk very useful for my own branches that I want to be hosted at Launchpad, but I very much resent that Launchpad labels my software as "junk".

What if I wanted a prospective employer to check out some of my software? Would I refer them to my +junk branches? Probably wouldn't impress them very much. Launchpad should have a neutral and professional wording on the site.

I suggest something like "+user" instead, which also signals that the author does not want those to be part of a project.
