Yes, I think it would be good to deprecate/discard the current rebase and make cherry-pick the recommended workflow.
Optionally. I've been thinking about not using git-cherry while cherrypicking, because falling back to three-way merge seems to work equally well in dealing with "patch already applied" case.
Anyway, teaching the range notation to cherry-pick would be something like this, I suppose.
