You should be able use the 'Parent Diff' feature to let RB know about
your other changes that have "not yet been applied to the trunk",
without having it mix them into the diff to review.

Here's how I think the procedure will work in detail:

   1. Identify a revision that is in the repo you chose when creating
      the review request^[1] <#footnote1> *and* present in your local
      repository. I will call that revision 'common_base' from here on.
          * If in doubt, pull from the chosen remote repository, so
            you'll have the tip in common and can use that as
            common_base. (I don't think common_base actually has to be a
            common ancestor of the remote's tip and the revision you
            want reviewed.)
   2. Identify the revision that the change to be reviewed is based on.
      Let's call it 'begin'.
   3. Save the diff from common_base to begin as parent.diff:

      hg diff -r common_base -r begin > parent.diff

          * Of course, substitute the revisions identified above for
            common_base and begin, respectively.
   4. I'll assume you still have the diff you uploaded when creating the
      review. I not, get it from
      https://codereview.secondlife.com/r/150/diff/raw/ (or click the
      *Download Diff* button)
          * This diff should apply cleanly on the begin revision
   5. On https://codereview.secondlife.com/r/150/, click *Update Diff*
   6. In the *Diff* field, choose the diff you already uploaded when
      creating the review
   7. In the *Parent Diff* field, choose the new parent.diff file
   8. Click *Upload*
