What do you want a consensus on? (Is the change in 2.13 a bug or feature? I considered it enough of a feature to not pursue an urgent bug fix. Maybe I misunderstood the discussion)
This thread has diverged into lots of things that could be done. Jonathan pointed out 3 possible ways forward. (1) and (3) are being worked on, (2) is a new thing that nobody (not Brandon nor me) have on our radar for what to work on next. So maybe that is a good idea to get started when you want to get into sending a patch?
Also I have the impression that there may be one corner case, in which the handling of refspecs is missed, i.e. maybe we'd need a list (in the man page eventually) on what currently happens when recursing in combination with remote/refspecs or other options.
