AFAIK, sequencer.c as it is in master parses the todo list
destructively and does not keep the associated action for each commit
and the "rest" string. interactive rebase does keep those, so I needed
a different data structure rather than the one currently being used in
sequencer.c.

As I said in another thread, originally I wanted to keep the scope
simple, and just do the rewrite of rebase from C to shell, and let any
further libifications and optimizations come after, so I didn't want
to touch sequencer for now. However, it turns out that Dscho has grand
plans for the unification of sequencer and interactive rebase, so I'll
go with that :-)

Regards,
Paul
