#2387 was marked as completed with a note to add our use cases for actual update-refs support.

Mine: I regularly write my code all on one branch, in small commits, but determine the branches divisions after I'm done writing a stack. Then I create the branches from the end, rebase on upstream, and move the branches where they belong with update-refs. Overcomplicated? Perhaps, but it's my workflow 🤷🏻‍♂️

Completely understand if it's not supported, but it's a shame cuz the rebase editor is really nice for that sort of work but I have to keep it off to make these sort of rebases. (It's still lacking for bulk work, I would love a multiselect, but that's much rarer for me)
