Yes, i used it quite often recent times. Usually I have a local copy of the 
repository and I do commits pretty often just to be able to revert if something 
goes wrong. Some of these commits are too small to be left in the final 
history. So after some feature is ready I update to some earlier revision 
(before this feature was started) and do reverts to some intermediate revisions 
and committing to a new unnamed branch. The original unnamed branch isstripped 
after that.

I understand that it is 'history editing' and it is not widely approved but all 
these things do not go out from my copy of the repository and I found the 
revert capability quite useful. Something similar could be achieved with MQ or 
pbranch but MQ will concatenate the commit messages when merging different 
patches and pbranch, I believe, is still non-functional in PyQT version of THg.
