New submission from Nathan Michaels <nmichaels at gmail.com>:

It would be nice to add a way for people to distribute a .hgignore file with a 
project but still allow developers to have a local .hgignore file. An easy way 
to do that would be something like the #include C preprocessor directive. That 
way we could have .hgignore files that look like this:

syntax: glob
*.o
*.dmp
local-ignore
#include "local-ignore"

and people could add their own "local-ignore" files.
