I don't see that as convincing argument for two classes of "no complete". Since git-completion.bash already special-cases rebase/am/cherry-pick for --continue|--abort|--skip, it is not far fetched that that special-case treatment can be extended slightly to also filter out those three options from the list returned by --git-completion-helper.

So, if that special case is handled entirely by the completion script, then that leaves only the "dangerous" options, which requires only a single flag.
