When I used MQ, it was to modify history in a way equivalent to some of git's features. Versioning that defeats the purpose.

The MQ versioning repo is separate from the main versioning repo. So I don't see how one follows from the other here. You can perfectly modify history in the main repo and version that editing in the MQ repo. The main repo will look clean because the history editing is versioned in the MQ repo.

Ah, that's good to know. I was not aware of that.
