I don't know about this.

I really want to know if there are reject files there if I
am checking to see if my tree is clean.

This has caught many patch application errors for myself
personally in the past, so I really don't want git to
start silently ignoring those things.

People should delete reject file explicitly, as they are
evidence of a patch that would not apply cleanly.  If you
abort trying to add the patch, fine, but cleaning up the
reject files is part of that operation.
