Okay, so can I start writing a series that will make git rebase accept one negative commit (N) and one positive commit (P) in any order? A git rebase N..P should rebase the DAG defined by P ^N onto $(git merge-base N P). Does that make sense?

(two positive commits are a special case for backward compatibility?)
