Let me see if I understand the primary idea behind this change by
trying to paraphrase the log (read: this is not to suggest a better
phrasing of the log message proposed in your message).

 * rebase-interactive.c::edit_todo_list() does not perform "did the
   user delete a pick, instead of turning pick into drop?" but after
   the end-user edits the file is the most logical place to do so.
   Let's do that there.

 * The sequencer used to perform "did the user delete a pick,
   instead of turning pick into drop?" check in complete_action().
   We drop that call but for this particular codepath it does not
   make any behaviour difference due to the next item.

 * New code does the check in sequencer_continue(), which is called
   at the end of complete_action(), as well as many other places,
   like builtin/rebase.c, builtin/revert.c, and sequencer_skip().
   Because the check is only done when we are running "rebase-i",
   this is safe---it only affects complete_action().

I hope I got it more-or-less correctly ;-)

We used to copy ONLY when initial is set and we left old todo_backup
intact when !initial.  That is no longer true after this change, but
it is intended---we create an exact copy of what we would hand out
to the end-user, so that we can compare it with the edited result
to figure out what got changed.

We unlink(2) unconditionally because the only effect we want to see
here is that todo_backup does not exist before we call copy_file()
that wants to do O_CREAT|O_EXCL.  I wonder if we want to avoid
unlink() when initial, and also if we want to do unlink_or_warn()
when !initial (read: this is just "wondering" without thinking long
enough to suggest that doing so would be better)

OK, so we lost "pick 5" but with missing-check disabled, that should
not trigger any annoying warning or error.

OK, so we lost "pick 1" while discarding "bad", and we should notice
the lossage?  I see "head -n5" there, which means we are still
getting "invalid line 1: badcmd", even though FAKE_LINES now got rid
of "bad"?  Puzzled...
