Thanks; I also think so (obviously :p). Could we allow this on the
ground that: (
- It's simple and few lines of code
- It fits nicely into qpop's logic
- It allows you to 'empty' a line of patches in one go
- It's in an extension )?

Maybe the --keep-wdir option should be renamed --keep, though? and maybe
(although I don't think that's important) get the short option -k.
