One thing I miss with "ignore-on-commit" is that I actually want all changelists to behave this way: to be unselected by default. I usually use change lists to mark some work in progress. When committing I have to start with unselecting all, then I usually select the non-in-changelist items (they are grouped in TortoiseSVN as well) or the changelist I want to commit. If anyone wants to keep the current behaviour where only "ignore-on-commit" is special, it could be customizable, e.g. configure it to ignore all "ignore-*" or "WIP-*" lists, or "*".
