Brilliant! I like the 'fixup' command and look forward to using it, but this is probably my favorite commit in the series. I did the same reverse-engineering a few months ago and didn't think to write it down and save you having to do it. Now you have saved the next person from doing so. This and your refactoring commits will cause me some annoyance as I bring the rebase -i -p series up to date, but that just means I should hurry up and get it in shape for merge rather than continue to have to resolve conflicts.
