On one occasion I wanted to use it with 'svn add' (but for 'svn add' I think it's closer to being syntactic sugar than with other commands). I see how it would make sense for 'svn merge', too, since that too can add files. BTW: dannas commented on IRC that the behaviour of 'svn patch --add-to-cl' should be defined with respect to patches that don't apply successfully.
