So I can see why a variant of "squash" that does not change (nor even ask

How about deleting the commit message header?

pick c0ffee not to be modified commit message
pick 012345 squashme

squash 012345

It requires explicit removal the unwanted commit message, avoiding any
accidents due to ambiguous keywords.
