New submission from Louis-Felix Boulanger <lfboulanger at gmail.com>:

We are looking for a mechanism inside Mercurial to enable us to add text to a commit 
comment as it is performed.
The reason for this is simple: We would like developers to be able to associate their 
commits to specific feature requests or time tracking tasks.
Therefore, users could go in and perform a commit, enter the commit message they want 
and apply their commit. Our hook could then execute and add additional information to 
the commit comment.

I believe this feature would be pretty useful in a lot of different integrations.

We are already using the latest RC for TortoiseHG 2.0, and I did not find any way to do 
this without modifying the code.
