Yeah, care should be taken indeed, and it's not trivial to foresee all
possible troubles from changing to cherry-picking of merge commits.
However, in general it looks like it's better to get some conflict to
deal with from cherry-picking than to miss essential changes silently as
it sometimes happens now.

I also wonder if git remembers in merge commits what merge strategy was
used? If not, then it's yet another argument in favor of cherry-picking.
