Hi Christian,

I seem to have some problems understanding what you want!

If you would do such a 'remote pull' for a new milestone on the remote 
cws hg repository wouldn´t you than need to pull these changes done on 
that remote cws hg repository into your local hg repository afterwards 
before you can than push your own changes in order to resolve merge 
conflicts and to not create two mercurial heads on the remote hg 
repository and wouldn´t that mean that in fact nothing is gained at all?

Kind regards,
Bernd Eilers
