Back when cherry-pick was a single commit operation, lack of the option did not matter very much, but it probably makes sense to allow telling the command that the entire series of commits is expected to be full of ones that do not verify. In the same vain, we already support --allow-empty and --allow-empty-message, so in that sense this change probably is an improvement.
