No.  :-)

If you are in a working repo and all patches are safely
stored in some main repo, unpull the patches you don't want
(you can pull them back later).

Otherwise make a temp repo (darcs get . _tmp) and unpull the
unwanted patches there (or pull them back from there if you
want to unpull them in the current repo).

I also think `darcs annotate --patch foo' can produce something
vaguely resembling what you want.
