I don't see that as a problem. As long as you push the rebased version with no
*other* modification. You don't need to rebase to update a contribution, you
only rebase because you want or need to for other reasons.

Yes, this is the issue in question. I don't know of a generic way of solving
it with Git. That's why I am asking that, if people are going to submit
rebases, submit ONLY the rebase, with no extra changes.
