Yes, it is

	pick e8902c1 # Foo
	pause

in sequencer currently. Of course, "pause" could be renamed to "halt", "stop" or whatever you like. But I think everyone likes something different.

And

	edit e8902c1 # Foo

is simply a shortcut for the pick-pause above. (Or "e e8902c1" instead of edit, which works, too.)

I usually prefer typing "cw edit<ESC>" over "o pause<ESC>" into vim in such cases.

Regards,
  Stephan
