After the recent patch "allow single-pick in the middle of cherry-pick
sequence" we don't need that hack any more. In the new regime, a
traditional "git cherry-pick <commit>" command never looks at
.git/sequencer, so we do not need to cripple "git cherry-pick
<commit>..<commit>" for it any more.
So this is why you needed that "relatively esoteric feature" :P
This approach competes with the approach I presented in "New sequencer
workflow!" [1], where I use a special case to side-step various
sequencer state files: this approach wins on the grounds of
simplicity, and I can't see any potential long-term issues with my
limited foresight. Do you have any other points of comparison?
