I am hoping to coordinate the inclusion of this upstream first and have this hopefully in the real 1.4.1 release.

Last time I tried this, it did not work for me, so I am putting it on hold. I feel, however, "am" is a high-enough-level tool that we would prefer to keep it scriptable for quick tweaks.

If it is hurting portability because it is written in shell, maybe this can be moved to all Perl (especially when Pasky's Git.pm is ready) or Python. Personally I think Windows minded folks who cannot stand command-line interface Cygwin port gives would not be satisfied anyway, until somebody writes a native drag-this-mail-and-drop-on-that-brach tool, so porting the command out of shell may not be even worth doing. I dunno.
