Well, it was a request and some people think it is a good idea to do so.
Some disagree - like you. So please create a new suggestion (and post a
link to that here), so BOTH work flows are possible.

I think there should just be two menu entries. So you can choose every
time. An option is to static.

I do use the Interactive Rebase within QtCreator VERY often. I sometimes
have problems on Windows, when an open file cannot be overwritten by the
rebase. Otherwise it works quite well.

Can you create a bugreport for this problem too and link it here?
