Indeed!  I've never noticed it as I always used "r i", and not the other
rebase commands.  For the records: this patch fixes
'magit-rebase-edit-commit' and 'magit-rebase-reword-commit' commands
(which are bound to "r m" and "r w" by default).

Since this fix is not really for the "interactive rebase" itself (I mean
what is bound to "r i"), but for the other rebase commands, I changed
the commit message and applied the patch as 46bd45152¹, thanks!

Ah, somehow I thought it affected all of the rebase commands. I should
have known someone would have caught it if it did.
