Yes, I realized you seem to be right and nobody told me (I learnt git on my own), but in git, you can run git add --interactive (and it allows you to selectively work with each uncommitted add you did) and there is also git add --edit, which allows you to directly edit the unified patch in your favorite text editor (the one that will be stored in the commit).
Seems REALLY powerful, but need to play more with it. As a side note, one of the reasons I dislike git is because the commands don't do (do as in never) what their name imply, and some are hidden as subcommands inside commands that are meant for other purposes. Fossil should keep away from that road of uncertainty.
