The rationale was this: filter-branch recently learnt how to rewrite many 
branches, and it might be tedious to find out which ones.  But then, there 
is git log --no-walk --all, so maybe I really should get rid of 
refs/original/*?

I'd like to have some comments from the heavier filter-branch users on 
that...

Ciao,
