What is the arbitrary porcelain you have in mind? :-)

Please do, since I'm not really sure what you have in mind. If
CHERRY_PICK_HEAD is left-behind, it interferes with the eventually
commit done by rebase --continue. I suppose we could give commit.c
some additional logic to detect when it's being called by rebase
(setting whence = FROM_REBASE?).

In the mean time, I'll re-roll with your additional tests and Junio's
prior feedback.

Thanks,
