That sounds fine to me.

I do have to admit that after reading through the "format.*" section of
git-config(1), there is quite a bit that is configurable in it. So
perhaps we do not need to be as careful about behavior changes as I
thought.

So if you wanted to squish steps 2 and 3 together, that would also be OK
by me.
