There's an alternative:

Your todo-list has the following issues:

Do you want to edit again (no aborts the rebase) [Y/n]?

There's a precedent with the 'e' command of "git add -p". I have a
slight preference for non-interactive commands so I prefer not going
this way though.

edit-todo (and "rebase -i" in general) is all about going
interactive, isn't it?  I was almost going to suggest to keep
spawning the editor until the user gets it right, but that would
infinitely repeat when GIT_EDITOR is set to a broken script, so
I didn't ;-).
