Ah, I just sent a review on 1/2 as I found it was not commented on
by anybody, but re-reading this sentence (and subsequent review of
this 2/2) makes it clear this is not a good idea.  By definition,
the index immediately after creating and getting on an orphan branch
is not clean [*1*].

I'll move the topic from "Needs review" to "Will discard" pile in my
tree.

Sorry for the noise.


[Footnote]

*1* Roughly speaking, if "git commit" (no arguments) to record the
state of the index succeeds without "--allow-empty", your index is
dirty with respect to HEAD.
