I disagree. The pending is not done until the corresponding revision is
created and hence integrated on the history of the branch. That revision
is the merge, not the source code changes that `bzr merge' created.
This is a about how to interpret certain terms. You are seeing the issue
from the POV of a code writer who cares mostly about the state of the
working tree. Me from the POV of somebody who is more fluent with the
tool (bzr) and see things on terms of history points.
