In the same way, I would expect "git revert <commit> -- file" to undo the 
changes in that commit to _that_ file (something like "git merge-file 
file <commit>:file <commit>^:file"), but this time commit it, since it 
was committed at one stage.
Allowing people to revert or cherry pick partially by using
paths limiter is a very good idea; the whole "it comes from a
commit so we also commit" feels an utter nonsense, though.
