How would you imagine Fossil would support this, which would end up being 
easier?

What about the Bundle mechanism?

IIRC, it was intended to provide capability to Git pull requests in a fossilish way. So as I understand it, it can be used to migrate changes from one repository to another, with a fair bit of control over what moves at both the sending and receiving end.

You would begin work on your paid feature in a clone constructed to have only the amount of history you want to reveal. I suspect a bundle could be used to populate an empty repo to begin that.

You would use bundles to package changes from the main repo to apply to the clone, and vice-versa.

I'm not sure if the clone needs to share any features at all with the original, I haven't personally had reason to use bundles yet.
