Shouldn't it make it possible to do an almost-hard reset (that is, keep a 
dirty working tree's changes while changing the index and HEAD to a 
different commit)? AFAICT, this series doesn't expose the interesting new
functionality it provides.

Also, I thought that we'd found that other built-ins could be simplified 
through the use of functions you're adding here. In particular, checkout 
wants to change the index and working tree while preserving dirty working 
tree changes. So it would probably be better for it to go in a library 
object, where sequencer--helper would just make it available to shell 
code.
