Actually, I am VERY glad that "unedit -u" is not branch specific. This is an administrator command to clear the repository (e.g. if somebody left the project), so why not to clear it completely ? Or, better, the command could be branch specific to keep consistency, but then, please, put there some option flag (like "-a" for cvs editors) to specify that one wants to remove specified user completely from all branches. With the flag present, the command will clean all branches (as it does now).
