I'm sure there's something comparable in darcs? I don't think there is. I wouldn't be against adding a --max-count switch which only returns N matching results. I've filed http://bugs.darcs.net/issue1437 for comment. There's been some confusion about what --last is supposed to do (and your analysis that it counts back in the global patch stack sounds right).
