I think that's a good default behavior, at least. The user might not be
aware, at a given time, that the file he's trying to edit is ignored.
Maybe they forgot or new to the project, or maybe the file is matched to
a wildcard in .hgignore that wasn't intended for it.
Displaying the file's status in vc-dir when the user edits it makes
sense. Similarly to what we do for up-to-date files that had a different
status previously: we keep showing them in vc-dir.

You can press `x', and that will hide them.

Nothing is impossible, of course. I'd review a patch introducing a
custom variable. It will have to change vc-dir-resynch-file.
