Making almost everything that the tool does not pay attention to (like the patch title of "pick") into comments, floated by Elijah in the thread, does sound another reasonable direction to go. If we are not doing "pick 0f2d4b69 # the title of the commit", adding the message without "#" to "break" might be a better way to go for consistency.
