For many people commit is more "core" to their git usage than write-tree and
commit-tree.  At this point, it's less an extra layer porcelain and more the
standard interface.  It's a result of the wonderful attempts to make git more
user friendly.

As far as [core] being only for plumbing, I disagree with that premise as
well.  Any option that is used across many of the git commands is a core
(meaning central) option.

That pov certainly makes sense to me.

Good to see the discussion converged while I was trapped in the
day job.  So core.editor it is?
