I think all of these workflows share a step where you have edits in your 
working directory that are not in the working dir’s parent changeset. Thus, I 
argue that hg status is helpful in a majority of cases.

In the long term, it may be better to make patchcheck work on diffs rather than 
$vcs status (that will be an interesting challenge for me), or something else 
depending on the future dev policy. That is explicitly what I’m not doing here: 
I’m doing a straightforward patch to add support for Mercurial in a way that 
just mimics Subversion, doesn’t mandate one workflow, and doesn’t cost anything.

Now it’s up to you to commit this or set resolution to “later”, I won’t argue 
further or complain. :)
