Hmm, I might be mistaken, but my impression was that sane people do not do
so, that the discussion that originated this proposed patch was not such a
use case, and most importantly that fixing unsane ones is just the matter
for them to set GIT_WORKING_TREE correctly. So if anything, wouldn't
getting this in as early as possible to 'master' or at least 'next' help
catching a flaw in the above logic and possible downside in the real
world?
