Feature Request: export unversioned and modified files

Just wondering if it would be possible to implement the following:

Export any uncommitted changes from a local copy - added, modified & unversioned files - preserving the directory structure of the files exported.

The use case I have is the following:

Changes are made to a local copy of a repository branch when it becomes apparent that a merge is required from trunk to provide functionality needed for the local changes.  Want to commit the merge without including the local changes. To do this I need take a copy of the local changes before reverting the local repository and performing the merge. It would be useful to export the locally modified files using the method described above rather than exporting the entire repository which can take a long time; or using patch files as there are often issues reapplying patch files when the repository has changed.

Please let me know what you think of this.

Regards,
Jonny Rylands.
