I'm basically referring to everything that has wider use out there and
that knows to access Git repositories. I don't know about all the
implementations out there and whether they do or don't support
bisections. If they don't then this is great, because it makes it a ton
easier for us to argue why the proposed refactoring is okay to do.

Many users do use graphical frontends, so we likely should investigate
how they'd behave, yes.
