People with minimum Perl installation should still be able to use "add -i"
as long as they do not use 'e' subcommand, shouldn't they?  Shouldn't we
do something like:

	my $can_use_temp = eval {
        	require File::Temp;
                1;
	};

and disable 'e' subcommand unless $can_use_temp?

Don't you want to say "Do not touch lines that begin with ' '"?

Hmm, perhaps not even giving the "@@ ... @@" lines to the editor would be
a more robust solution?

Have to wonder where the potential error message would go, and if it would
confuse the end users...

I recall that the original "add--interactive" carefully counted numbers in
hunks it reassembles (as it can let you split and then you can choose to
use both parts, which requires it to merge overlapping hunks back), but if
you are going to use --recount anyway, perhaps we can discard that logic?
It may make the patch application less robust, though.  I dunno.

An alternative, and probably more robust, approach would be to recount
what we have in @{$mode->{TEXT}}, after letting the user edit some of
them, so that "add--interactive" still knows what it is doing after
applying your patch without having to rely on "apply --recount".
