I do not have a strong preference myself.  As you are not proposing
to eject jh/clean-smudge-annex from my tree, I'd have to resolve the
conflicts when the second topic is merged after one topic, whichever
happens to be more ready.  IOW, such a rebase adds to my workload.

Like it or not, it is normal for different topics to want to touch
the overlapping area or one topic to invalidate an assumption the
other topic is based on, and working well together does not have to
mean leaving the conflict resolution to the sole responsibility of
the integrator.  A clean way forward may be for everybody involved
(and I see you forgot to add Joey to this thread) to agree that this
topic is more ready than jh/clean-smudge-annex and you and Joey to
work together to rebase jh/clean-smudge-annex on top of this topic
(or possibly the other way around), making him wait for you.
