If I remember correctly, the IDE already has a widget for displaying
diffs (for the Project > Patch dialogs). This allows you to (un)tick
changes in a patch file at the hunk level. I think a `git diff` into
that widget and using its output for an automatic walk through
`git add --patch` will get you pretty far already. The only thing
that's missing is a way to break selected hunks up further.
