I think even without the test-terminal cleanup, this is a good thing.
Any time there is a heuristic like isatty(), we should have a way for
the user to be more explicit about what they want().
I very often do "git am --no-3" to countermand a failed "git am -3"
(or vice versa), so I'll be hit very hard with a need to retrain my
fingers.  But I'll live ;-)

"--retry" is a horrible word, in that it makes it sound like it will
keep trying to apply the same patch over and over until it applies
cleanly or something.  Can't we use "--continue" like everybody else
(like "git rebase --continue", etc.), or would that be even more
confusing?
