Yes.

In any case, most likely these objects would have been packed anyway 
during that period, so they would have been pruned by the repack called by 
git-gc.

My patch really, really is about _unreferenced_ loose objects, i.e. 
something you get by multiple "git add"s without commits.  And by merge 
conflicts.

IOW by objects that were never referenced by commit objects.

Ciao,
