That's really quite subtle. I think there should probably be a 
cmd_merge_subtree that shares almost everything with cmd_merge_recursive, 
but is a different function.

Or maybe there should be a "--subtree" option to merge that has that 
effect with arbitrary stratgeies by changing what gets sent to the 
strategy.

But restoring access to the strategy for now is obviously fine.
