Actually I use it from time to time when I need to compare intermediate steps of _previous_ run of the same rebase while rebasing, if the current run needs to resolve conflicts (may be the same conflict, may be a different conflict, depending on what bases are used for the current run and the previous run).

Please do not break it.
