In my experience, few git users are expert enough to solve all the 
problems mentioned in this thread on their own, without a lot of 
head-scratching or consulting friends etc.  However, most non-expert Git 
users will want to maintain the distinction between committing and 
pushing, as this distinction is basic to Git and is typically 
preferred.  If VC by default conflated committing with pushing, I expect 
that would cause more problems than it'd cure, even among non-experts.
