I'll have to look at this in detail. Here is my current opinion:

For a couple of lines, rebases are o.k. For anything as large as the searchlight
modifications i did, probably not. (In this case they really are evil!) What i
really want to do is develop features in topic-branches, and then for a patch 
submission
squash all commits, for example with a squash merge or something like that.
