Speaking of which, must we use that annoying bang? I hate how bash
gets in my way when I try to write a commit message with a a bang in
it, I'd much rather use a different character that is not in risk of
being mistreated by my shell. (Although it seems that bash does do TRT
in the 'fixup!' case.)

There was a strong objection (I think from Johanes) against not 
using 'unusual' letters during the initial round back in June 
2009. Even when explicitly giving '--auto-squash' from the 
command line, there can be commits with confusing titles 
like "fixup the ancient bug in cat-file" in addition to 
the ones you wanted to mark with the "fixup!" marker.
