which means that the --all needs to walk all commits reachable from
all refs and flag them as uninteresting.

Scratch that, it "only" needs to mark every tip commit and then walk
them back to about where the interesting commits end.

In any case, since the uninteresting set only gets larger, it should
be possible to reuse the same revision walker.
