*Maybe* git can be even smarter, and notice that only
commit message has changed, and preserve the author automatically
in this case? I haven't looked at how hard that would be to do.

Maybe you can try what you complain about out before you rant?
I amend other people's commit messages after the fact almost
*every* *day*.

Me too.  And I *know* Junio amends my stuff after applying it to
git.git.  Just look back at the history to see how many thinkos
he's saved me from...  ;-)
