IMHO rebase -i is the important part.  The user interface needs some 
serious overhaul, which I am in the slow process of doing.  The sequencer 
then has to follow suit.

As it stands, I think sequencer is not good enough yet to replace rebase 
-i (all my comments about that are public, except the heads-up I sent 
Stephan in private).

To be frank, 'rebase -i -p' support, as it is in git.git is not good 
enough at all.  That's why I was working on that, and I am close to 
finishing it.

Ciao,
Dscho
