To save anyone else pointing this out, I'm now aware that "hg incoming" and "hg outgoing" are the actual commands I want. Still, that kind of mistake is why I want to keep the dev FAQ around - to help people that don't know enough to avoid the misleading answers a web search will sometimes give back.
Cheers, Nick.

incoming and outgoing compare your repository to a remote repository, not your working copy.

Yeah, I know, but for the use case I actually had in mind with that new FAQ entry ("When I type this next push command, what is it going to do?"), it's the committed changes that are important. I had my terminology wrong, so Google led me astray.
Cheers, Nick.
