As the recommended way to generate those commits is by using the --fixup/--squash options of git-commit, and as there is *a much higher* chance of false positives when using a very short tell-tale such as `f!` (which could be an abbreviation for an expletive, likewise `s!`), I do not think we will want this change.

Let's keep handling just fixup!/squash!

Ciao, Johannes
