Ah, sorry, but it's already done.

I tried "git branch <TAB>" and saw hundreds of possibilities
offered, and thought mixing -d/-l and friends are useless.  I
didn't think of the possibility of saying "git branch -<TAB>".

Presumably it was trying to suggest the <start-point> argument
but that does not make much sense actually either.
