<gmc/> Yes.  I'll add some words to this effect to the CHECKIN section
(which is currently how baselines are created), and then we can merge
this into whatever changes you have made to this section.

<jra>
I don't think we should overload checkin of a collection with baselining a
collection. Checkin releases a resource so someone else can change it. Just
because you check in a collection doesn't mean you're ready to create a
baseline, it just means your done changing that portion of the URL namespace.
You may want to make many changes to the contents of these resources before
creating a configuration. Creating a baseline should be a convenience method for
creating a configuration that is rooted at a particular collection.
