Actually, I had Carl Worth in mind when I asked the (rhetorical) question 
what is meant by "master:blub".  And I think Carl agrees that he would 
expect it to create a new branch.

However, as I hope I made clear that I do not think that a DWIMery would 
do good here.  IOW I vote for keeping the existing behaviour (otherwise 
you'd have seen a patch from me, too).

Ciao,
Dscho
