How does this interact with core.worktree and the setup sequence in
general?

By "setup sequence", I mean something I tried to extract from Nguyen here:

 http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/141962/focus=142001
 
During the process of finding the repository (.git/ or project.git/), we
would open its config to check the repository format version, that that
would be the earliest point we might decide where the work tree is (or if
we have work tree at all).  Where should this new mechanism hook into the
sequence to give users an expected behaviour (what's expected in the first
place)?
