  Why wouldn't we want automated, non-interactive tools to have the benefits of watchman? There are plenty of use cases where complex Mercurial operations are scripted and would benefit from watchman.
  
  Your commit message details an issue that I assume you encountered in the wild. Are there other ways we can work around this? Perhaps we can set the idle timeout/shutdown interval of watchman to be much smaller when Mercurial is non-interactive?
