Indeed, but it used to work quite well for me, too. I usually made extra
sure to start a new session by using `exec bash -i`...

That's not so scriptable. I have a couple of scripts around the
interactive rebase.

Besides, `b` is much shorter to type than `x false` (and I also cannot
tyop it late at night as `x flase`, although that would have the same
effect, I guess, of stopping the interactive rebase).
