But is that user who changes their mind in the middle "seeking"? It is more like "I am abandoning the enumeration I started earlier over refs/heads/, and I want a different enumeration over refs/heads/feature/, but because I know the implementation detail that abandoning an iterator and creating another is more expensive, let me reuse the one in use to repurpose it". I wouldn't call it "seeking"; it sounds more like "resetting".
