It would be easy to introduce, but I am wary about its usefulness.
Unless you re-generate the branch from patches (which I guess you do a
lot, but I don't), you are likely to compare incomplete patch series: say,
when you call `git rebase -i` to reword 05/18's commit message, your
command will only compare 05--18 of the patch series.
Well that is exactly the point of that "..@{1} @{1}..", which turned
out to be very useful in practice at least for me when I am updating
a topic with "rebase -i", and then reviewing what I did with tbdiff.

I do not want 01-04 in the above case as I already know I did not
touch them.
