This is, I suppose, a bit controversial, since it's a UI change.
But, combined with having pick write out numbers as it finds them
(uip/pick.c r1.15), this is insanely useful. You can 'pick
whatever | scan -' and interrupt it when you find what you're
looking for.
Yes, I think this would be very useful. While pick is pretty fast,
my hard disc unforunatly isn't...
I often use pick to look for peoples e-mail addresses and don't want
to search a whole folder just for that. I often end up using
pick last:n - but guessing n might go wrong.
So, that's a +1 from me for the functionality, but I didn't look
at the patch.
