Given that git-remote-bzr provides a git frontend to a bzr repository,
I'm not sure the backwards compatible command-line interface sounds too
exciting... :)

I don't personally work with many bzr repositorys anymore, so I would be
inclined to orphan git-remote-bzr to someone with a more vested interest
if bzr/bzrlib was dropped for buster+1.

Upstream on git-remote-bzr hasn't been terribly active either:

  https://github.com/felipec/git-remote-bzr

Though it's largely continued to work, which isn't a bad sign.
