Could you unpack that for me a bit? My assumption is that
worktree-only mode doesn't touch the index (other than maybe reading
from it), and treating the index as read-only means by definition it
can't lose anything from there -- but then you mentioned using the
intent-to-add bit, and I feel like I'm missing an important puzzle
piece somewhere. Trying to make sense of it, I'm wondering if you are
objecting to using overlay mode in general, or are trying to connect
this to the new "precious" concept being advanced, or if there's
something else you are considering here.
