Thanks, this seems like a good idea for the cover letter, especially.
I prefer to get the commit messages right in the git history, first,
but I more often screw up the cover letter.
I haven't looked at the code to send-email in a while,
so some thinking out loud below :>

OK, -1 is the new return value. Thanks for documenting this.
The rest of the prompt implementation looks fine and I won't quote it.

OK, process_file is a new function...

And the previously documented -1 return value is used here.
Mental note: process_file returns 0 to indicate an edit was done.

Cute, but that comment could say something useful, instead:
# user is still editing the file
Otherwise, I think the patch is great. Thanks!
