Reviewboard newbie here; apologies if this is a frequent or ill-advised 
question.

I've got a reviewboard server running, I've successfully installed RBTools, 
I've successfully run rbt setup-repo to hook reviewboard up to my Perforce 
server.  And I've successfully used rbt post to create a review from a 
Perforce changelist.

My question is, how can I create a single review encompassing multiple 
changelists or other sources?

I've tried rbt -u, but that seems to throw away the previous changelist's 
diffs and replace them with a new set.

I've tried rbt post changelist1 changelist2, but that seems to build a 
review from a whole range of changelists, not just changelist1 and 
changelist2.

This may not be possible, but I *really want* to do it, and if it's the 
wrong thing to want, I'm curious to know why, because it probably means 
that my mental model of how to use reviewboard effectively is wrong.

In a possibly-related question, I tried to add a file (a text fine 
containing design notes) to my review using the instructions under the 
"posting paths" section in the rbt post documentation.  I discovered two 
things:

   1. Evidently I can't add an arbitrary file; I can only add a file that's 
   checked in to Perforce.
   2. Evidently I can't add a file to an existing review: if I use rbt post 
   -u //path/to/file, I get a new review; it doesn't add to an old one.

Again, I may be going about this all wrong.  Enlightenment appreciated.

reviewboard 2.5.10 running on the server.  RBTools version 1.0.3.
