Thanks, that's a bit more concrete.  But it's not fragile, is it?
pick_commits() is the entry point to the cherry-pick machinery ---
anything that uses a struct replay_opts is called indirectly by
pick_commits(), no?

So (genuinely, even when I'm not pretending to be naive) I still don't
see the point.  I'm not even convinced it's a bad idea, since it's
still not clear to me what the idea is.
