I can see my submodule's files, both in the diff and the commit dialog, even if no files are selected. I guess that's why I was hoping it would work.
I haven’t checked, but I think the diff command recursively visits submodules with changes.
For me, the commit window does not show files from submodules.
In practice the commit command could also recursively visit submodules, but if the user selects both files in the root repository and one or more submodules, then it would have to do multiple commits, and if it does commits both in a submodule and the root repository, one might perhaps expect that the commit done in the root repository would also include updating the submodule reference.
