Yes, that makes sense.  That way you can say "Please start
naming the output files at 0032-xxxx.txt, because you gave me 31
patch series last time, but I do not want [PATCH x/y] on the
subject line, just [PATCH]".

That brings up another issue.  Don't we need to have another
option --total-number that overrides the /y part above?

Hmm...
