jpc: WTF? I thought that that's what I said, but now I see that I wrote that it acted like svn. I don't know what happened there.

I shall fix it immediately. Thank you.

From my experience Mercurial silently commits the version from the time when the editor started. (unlike svn)

Monotone doesn't throw away your commit message, it stores it. When you commit again, it'll pop up $EDITOR and you can edit your message again.
