that's good. my first complaint is that hgweb sucks for not telling me
about them.

missing: a script to analyze hgrc for unknown extensions.

I have about 1000 repositories floating around, distributed on
probably 10 computers.

If I could run a script which would try using each hgrc it finds and
use that to identify extensions which the repository doesn't know,
that'd be great.

Bonus points for there to be a safe way for me to clone only that
script and the list of known repositories without having to clone all
of the subrepos. -- no i haven't spent the time playing with subrepos
to know if this will happen by default -- I do *not* want to have to
download all extensions just to tell you what i have that you don't :)

Offhand, mozilla has:
qimportbz = http://hg.mozilla.org/users/robarnold_cmu.edu/qimportbz
trychooser = http://hg.mozilla.org/users/pbiggar_mozilla.com/trychooser
patience = http://hg.mozilla.org/users/jlebar_mozilla.com/hg-patience

You're also missing:
hg-git
hgsubversion

I know you want someone to add things to a wiki, but at the moment i'm
cursing wikis and rebasing ~50 mq items.
