I agree.  The biggest benefit I am getting out of the workdir
layout is that it allows me to check out the same branch in two
directories, and let me work further on one while the other one
is compiling and running the testsuite.  The other "compile and
test tree" needs to be reset with --hard once I commit in the
"edit tree", but by definition "reset --hard" is always a safe
operation in a "compile and test tree".

In short, you need to know what you are doing.
