+1.

Also, i've found that being able to stage regions /within hunks/ 
for staging, and thus being able to group together conceptually 
related changes easily, without needing to:

* go through multiple 'push stash -> delete unwanted -> pop stash' 
cycles, and/or

* deal with unneeded branch management bureaucracy,

helps me efficiently maintain a relatively clean commit history.

Thanks for your work on magit, i really appreciate it. :-)
