The changes to ui() to make it threading aware would be useful to the TortoiseHg
project (and any other GUI that subclasses ui for this purpose).

I would also like to see in-memory versions of patch and record.  This would
avoid possible file locking conflicts on Windows at commit time.  Perhaps while
we were at it we could account for filters applied to the working copy
(like win32text).
