I sometimes (ab)use the "edit" exactly like that myself, so a simple-minded unconditional change of behaviour would be a UX regression to me as well. > With the introduction of the "break" command you can certainly argue > that "edit" is the wrong command to use in my case. Muscle memory is > hard to retrain though :) Yes, with a vim macro or its Emacs equivalent, it should be just as easy as doing "s/^pick /edit /" to insert "break" after every line that begins with "pick ", but "just as easy" is still an unwanted forced change to the end-users. If I really wanted to, the right and only way out is to introduce a new insn similar to "edit" but behaves more like what I said earlier. Thanks.
