this feature is not planned directly, but something to think about. Although I wonder if the complexity of that task is UI-wise not better served by two steps (splitting and merging). Also, moving a hunk next to another patch, so that they can be merged, can possibly cause conflicts to be resolved, which additionally complicates the UI. It seems that there is no "quilt merge". That would indeed be useful.
