Indeed, in practice I try to make branches 'self-contained' so that
they can be merged (or not) without affecting any other branch, but with
these two branches that wasn't possible without introducing merge
conflicts. Granted, they're *easy* to solve merge conflicts, but
conflicts nontheless.

Done, other than the rewriting of feature/7725-i2p-browser's history
since merging everything into a transient branch worked fine.
