If it's a feature branch, doesn't that strongly imply that more than one developer might need to commit to it?

I don't think a feature branch implies collaboration.

Even if more than one developer is involved, the model doesn't change: "master and feature" branches become "feature and developer-private-feature". The developer still relies on a (partial) working feature branch, and his contribution still has to be self-contained.

But since you have more developers you will have an out of band sync communication between them.

> rebasing on your private branch

Which I assume means it's only you working on it. Not all topic branches have multiple committers.
