By the way, I think another reason this is as ugly as it is, is that
shelve/stash is probably mostly used by new converts from
CVS/svn. Once you get into mq, it feels much better to keep your code
always in an mq patch rather than leaving it unprotected in the
working directory. So experienced users don't spend much time on the
qref/qpop -f bits of the process.
