That *was* a mistake on my part, not malice.
In any case, I was shocked that I was able to do what I did, so I would
support something that prevents mistakes -- at least big ones such as
creating or dropping branches unintentionally. Part of the problem here
is that the people who know exactly how to recover are the same ones who
are not as likely to make mistakes, and vice-versa.
