I did, and saw a comment that said:

	Unfortunately, the new Pragmstic Programming book is mostly written from using Git while still thinking in SVN, and in this case it has misled you. In Git, rebase keeps things simple when they can be. Your experience could tell you that your workflow doesn't work in Git, not that Git doesn't work.

which is one *REAL* problem I have with Git - it's not the job of a VCS to tell you what your workflow should be, it's the job of a VCS to support the preferred workflow of the developer and the desired workflow of the project.
