I don't take issue with you wanting that behaviour; it's a reasonable
thing to want (which is why I wrote it that way in the first place.)
At least it's a reasonable thing to have as an option.

My point was just that conceptually the problem is that commit is
throwing information away.  It is a bit strange that the only case
where it updates the user's model of the working inventory (as opposed
to the last-modified and similar bits which are internal) is for
missing files.
