Aren't you missing a:
trace.mutter('Some extensions failed to load:\n%s'
             % ('\n '.join(_extension_load_failures,))

At least, in the FAQ you say that the failures are in ~/.bzr.log. Maybe
they are there when they are first imported? It might be nice to have a
simple summary at the end.

I agree that it would probably be better as a help topic.
