Yeah, specifically I'll be interested in the following behavior:

(suppose I have an applied patch with changes to files a and b)
$ hg st
M a
M b
$ hg qref --append a (if we use -s here, b will be refreshed too)
$ hg st
M b
(with old changes to b stay in the patch)

If anyone made some effort in this direction, let me know (although you'll
be able to mimic this with the soon-to-come qrefresh --interactive :) .
