No, reflog doesn't keep parent-info about relationship between
commits, so it's a completely different beast.

The kind of ref I'm thinking of would be more like a commit-id embedded
in the commit message of every commit created by a rebase, together with
a tweak to "git merge" so that it uses those commit ids as additional
parents when looking for a common ancestor.
