The audit is complete; the filemap feature will be able to do most of the
job.
There are only 3 remaining different cases which bother me:

1. I need to exclude one complete svn revision
The splicemap feature may help here, but I'm not sure how to use it. The
documentation is confusing.

2. I need to exclude a range of revisions, but only for one and only one
specific file.
Wagner's patch may help; I'll try to use it as a base.

3. One file contains 3 lines of confidential data for almost its entire
history. I'd like to replace them with some innocuous text string and
keep all other things the same.
The getfilectx suggestion may help in this case. This function is only
present for mercurial to mercurial conversions, right ?
