Well then, how about (don't cringe too much now...)

  push.conservative = true

If enabled and "git push" is run w/o arguments, it will first emit what
it plans to push and then prompt with "yes/no." I'm kinda opposed to
silly prompts -- folks just always go right past them -- so I dunno.

But it does make the operation a bit more safe I guess.
