Heh, no sleeping tonight :P

Anyway, from (yet another) ad hoc test, additional step mentioned in 
[1] above seems to handle this case, too (merge with `-s ours` 
dropping B* patches, plus B1 cherry-picked between X1..X2):

And not just that - it worked with additional interactive rebase 
adding, amending and removing commits, on top of all this still 
preserving original `-s ours` merge commit evil-merge amendment, too, 
all as expected (or so it seems) :P

Again, for the brave ones, here`s another messy test script (not 
tightly related to the last discussed diagrams, but based on my 
original "demonstration" script[2])... Hopefully I get to make a 
proper (and sane) sample soon... if not missing something here in the 
first place ;)
