I'll look into adding this.

Given the limitations on prefix arg values, I think I'd be restricted
to using "C-u C-u" for this.

That could mean "prompt for the fill-prefix, and use the default column
and justify values", but it might be more useful to instead make it
prompt for *everything* -- justify, fill-column, fill-prefix, and maybe
left-margin too.

The default value would be provided in each case, so you could just RET
your way past the ones you didn't want to change.

How does that sound?
