I think revert is the best choice as revert already does most of this - 
it's just that you can't specify a range (as it's implicitly from the 
revision provided to the head revision). The revert command does not 
"take out" those changes either but instead reverses them and makes them 
uncommitted changes. If revert is just made a little more flexible it 
could provide this behavior while still keeping its existing 
functionality...
