I don't know. What do you think?
The constraints I see are:
1. outside scripts that use "git cherry-pick" should continue to work
2. as a small indication that that's vaguely possible, unrelated parts
of the test suite should not need to be patched
3. when a person uses commands like "git reset --hard" without
_intending_ to blow away the sequencer state, it should be possible
to get the sequencer state back.
For dealing with "git rebase --interactive" and similar porcelain-ish
scripts, the CHERRY_PICK_HEAD code-path has its own trick of falling
back to traditional behavior when the GIT_CHERRY_PICK_HELP environment
variable is set (see v1.5.4-rc0~106^2~1, revert/cherry-pick: Allow
overriding the help text by the calling Porcelain, 2007-11-28).
