Could it be, that the procedure is slightly too complicated?

I, e.g. am having two parallel trees present. E.g. HEAD and RC_1_34_0. I 
do not see easily if merging from my local HEAD to my local RC_* and 
then committing from local RC_* will be equivalent to the above 
procedure. Will it?

Also I suspect that quite some users are using tortoise-cvs. A recipe 
for this UI possibly would encourage more developers to follow the 
procedure.
