I like the idea (and I won't fight for my "pause" proposal if others
don't find it intuitive), but I'm wondering how to write the quick
documentation (in the todo-list). And if we don't find a concise way
to document it, it may reveal that it's a bad idea ...

Maybe:

#  e <commit>, edit <commit> = use commit, but stop for amending
#  e, edit = stop for amending

but I find this rather ugly.
