I think you could do

        tla missing --full > +file

then edit +file (or whatever) and delete the patches you don't
want, then

        xargs tla replay < +file

Untested, but should work.  Not too elegant.  Standard
disclaimers apply.

If you just want to roll back the current tree,

        tla replay --reverse `tla tree-version`--patch-10

If you then want to commit that reversal,

        tla sync-tree `tla tree-version`
           <make your logfile here or use -s below>
        tla commit

The python wrapper 'fai' aliases these actions to the command
'reject', minus the commit.

HTH.
