If you're using a recent version of Hg (2.xby, x>= 2, I believe),
there should be phase support which would allow you to mark the local
changes as secret.

I haven't used phases yet, and users don't normally need to think
about them, but I believe your scenario is one of the use cases that
has been discussed (and tested).
