I hadn't really appreciated the implications of all this HEAD reflog stuff
until now.
Please, please, HEAD@{} should /always/ be an alias for <current_branch>@{}.
There is one special case: when head is detached, <current_branch> would then
be the "unnamed branch" for reflog purposes; personally I'd like that stored
in .git/logs/DETACHED_HEAD or similar - in particular not in .git/logs/HEAD.
