All solutions have disadvantages.  We prefer the disadvantages that come
from using file-ids over the disadvantages that come from using
content-based rename detection.

That's fine, but please don't call the git rename handling "maybe" or 
"partial", like a lot of people seem to do. 

Git _definitely_ handles renames, both in everyday life and when merging.

Hmm.  Could you say more here?  The only examples I can think of for
handling renames are situations that can be expressed as a merge.

For example, populating a working tree can be expressed as:
BASE: nothing
THIS: nothing
OTHER: aabbccddee

Or revert can be expressed as

BASE: current
THIS: current
OTHER: aabbccddee

Or fast-forward pull

BASE: last-commit
THIS: current
OTHER: aabbccddee
