Hmm... If you do 'git cherry-pick' or 'git rebase' you also did
not test what you committed. Should we advertise them less
actively as well?

But I see your point. Selecting diff hunks tends to be more fine
grained than cherry-picking. But this depends on the details of
what you're doing. I don't think a general warning is appropriate.
