so perhaps what I'd want is something like this:

easier for the first scenario, i.e. to just commit the currently active tab)
- a key-combo to 'sticky-select' the current tab in the project
drawer: this way I could 'walk through' the open tabs (perform diffs, look at code etc.) and consecutively add tabs to the selection and then finally do a commit (which would then commit only the selected files)
any thoughts on such a feature from anyone else? is that too exotic?
I think it's too exotic! -- I do have the use-case myself sometimes that I need to commit two or three files with several more files actually changed. But I wouldn't go through un-selecting and sticky- selectiong active tabs etc. for this.
In your case it sounds like having svn commit use the open tabs instead of current file (when nothing is selected in the project drawer), might be a good solution.
