It's a question I have asked myself but since git rebase --status will certainly display more information maybe it's better to separate the two commands, and to indicate the user that git rebase --status exists in git status during a rebase. If we choose to use git status, it could be an option to display the full information since it currently gives very few information. I'm not sure what -verbose does but it could be its role.
Thanks,
