I deem this not an "important" bug. We usually do not set up tracking information for local branches, and I still do not know valid common scenarios for that workflow. But hey, if it really bothers you, and you can come up with a non-intrusive patch (i.e. a patch that does not punish all users that do _not_ set up locally-tracking branches), I am sure it will be welcomed.
