[RFC] explicit selection of edited files

I've been thinking about doing a plugin for explicitly marking files to
edit, for making things like converters faster, as well as in obscenely
large tree situations.

I'd like my thinking checked :).

Seems to me the basics are:
 - we maintain a list of 'edited' files.
 - a command to add/remove to that list.
 - some commands like 'revert' will probably want to add to that list
 - all tree operations like commit/diff/st will want to use that list as
an automatic selected-paths criteria.
 - commit resets the list
 - revert to basis resets the list
