Time to apologize...

Just think of '/' as a 7-bit ascii alias for '-' or \u00AC '¬'.  (I tried '-' 
and '!' and '~' first, of course, but there was something wrong with using each 
of those code points.  The MQ guard mechanism is pretty basic about the letters 
it accepts.)  Then try to forget that "-coro" looks different from "/coro".

Would be nice if there was more flexible exclusion logic built into 
.hg/patches/series and "hg qsel", or if (somehow) the treatment of +x and -x 
guards was more precisely opposite.  The "/coro" thing would not be needed if 
there were a way to say "hg qselect -- -coro".  For now it is "hg qselect /coro 
#I mean -coro".
