I was briefly considering it. But the point is this: I know exactly if I want to rebase my branch onto upstream, or if I want to merge it. There is not much point in mixing the two. So my rationale was: if we already have an existing framework to integrate remote changes with our current branch, why not just go ahead and use it? That's the reason BTW why I originally wanted a "rebase" merge stragegy. Even if it is not technically a merge. I really rather have no user-friendly support for fetch+rebase (and utter a friendly, but loud curse everytime I made a "git pull" by mistake) than yet another command.
