Is something like this over-generalized?

A good thing I see from having a specific option for "-i HEAD~n" is
that it's potentially shorter to type. For someone who does rebase a
lot and has CapsLock turned to Ctrl, it helps. Maybe "rebase -I" ==
"rebase -i HEAD^{last-merge}" (or "rebase -i
<the-revision-used-last-time>") and "rebase -I <n>" == "rebase -i
HEAD~<n>"?
