Well, yes.  But git-gui only works on a single branch head at a time,
and that is not enough for rebasing.  It would be really nice if
git-gui did not outsource its branch handling and viewing to gitk.

Could git-gui perhaps be merged with giggle at some point of time?
Another option might be to let it talk with uDraw(Graph) over a
socket: uDraw(Graph) keeps track of the graph layout and tells its
client what has been dragged where.

Rebasing would also be a fine operation for drag and drop on a
graphical revision history/branch system: pull one head onto another,
or mark one segment and pull it onto another head.  And use the reflog
to recover from catastrophes...
