Expand its meaning from "register > new file" to "register the current file/state for the next commit"? That would be a very confusing way to overload C-x v i. But if what you actually want is a way to edit the marked set without doing a directory listing, that might be arranged. Possible UI sketch: C-x v + = Add the visited buffer to the selection set. C-x v - = Remove the visited buffer from the selection set. C-x v ? = Display the current selection set. -- Eric S. Raymond
