I would hope that it would be fairly trivial, but I know nothing about
emacs modes.

Simon Marlow mentioned last week that he thought darcsum would really
need darcs to provide a simpler way to just split a hunk
(http://lists.osuosl.org/pipermail/darcs-users/2010-January/022983.html)
- is that what you'd want too or would you want the full power of
editing? Naively I'd expect that it should be easier for an editor mode
to cope with actually editing a patch, though I imagine if most people
just wanted to split then there would be a simpler UI possible.

If there's demand and it can be slotted into the UI neatly, the actual
implementation of hunk splitting within the existing editing framework
ought to be straightforward.

Cheers,

Ganesh
