Another option would be to deprecate the :/rx syntax over some period
in favor of ^{/rx}.
I think it's too ugly to live, and really useless. It's equivalent to
"--grep=<rx> --all". Does anyone use this and not really mean to use
^{/rx}? E.g. "git show :/fix" might show a fix on some unrelated
branch you recently rebased.

So it might DWYM after hanging there looking at your entire history
for a commit message matching foo.*bar? And if you make such a commit
it'll start meaning something else entirely?
