I like the idea to be able to exclude refs from listings. My use-case is
the following:

To unclutter 'git branch' output, I rename work-in-progress branches to
begin with "wip/", ready-to-merge branches do not carry this prefix. To
inspect unmerged work of the latter kind of branches I would like to
type... what?

  gitk --branches --except --branches=wip --not master
  gitk --branches --not master --except --branches=wip

Would one of these work with your current patch?
