Yup, I noticed that too (note I'm not looking to change git support,
just using it as a reference).

As an experiment, I change my code to use the REMOVED state for both
conditions, and the files show up in the view. But with state MISSING,
they don't even show up as modified. Something similar may be
happening with Mercurial. If I do:

[1999] hg init modified
[2000] cd modified
[2001] touch foo bar
[2002] hg add foo bar
[2003] hg commit -m 'Add files'
[2004] rm foo
[2005] hg rm bar
[2006] hg status
R bar
! foo
[2007] ~/app/meld.git/bin/meld .

neither file appears in the VC view.
