Is there a good reason against having *both*?

AFAICS, there's nothing stopping us from having both a "-e"-option to 
git-add, and an "e"-command inside git-add--interactive.

...just like we have "-p" and "p" today...

("git-add -e" would open the entire diff in an editor, as would "e" from the 
*main* menu of git-add--interactive. However, "e" from the *single hunk* 
menu would of course open only that single hunk within the editor. We could 
even have an "E" command to open all remaining/undecided hunks in an 
editor.)

Have fun! :)

...Johan
