Sure, I did :) The advantages of this approach for my task hugely
overweight the connected issue with inconsistency of the working copy.
Another reason I decided to speak up about this issue is that this might
be a symptom of a bigger problem. Some changes merely disappear from a
transaction, and it might very well happen that this relates not only to
changes made from the pre-commit script.
