It seems like there's two different workflows here: Some people keep
work in progress going on some files while wanting to commit other
files, while other people only have a single thing going (perhaps over
many files) and always wants to commit all changed files.

This sounds like it should be a user-level switch in vc that would
control whether the default is to commit all changes or just the current
file, I think.
