Having thought about this more over the balance of my weekend, it
makes sense that this is consistent with 'hg amend' from evolve, and
it feels right enough. Since it wasn't previously documented we'll go
ahead and do this, and if anyone complains we can revert it between
now and 4.2 being final.

I'll push both patches with the commit message adjustments you pointed
out upthread. Many thanks!
