I do not intend use it as a replacement of the working directory, but
mostly as a way to split up patches easier. Mainly to _remove_ lines
that I staged that I would like to be in a different patch in the
series (possibly after doing 'git reset --soft'). I always go through
my a longer patch series multiple times until I am satisfied with the
result, this addition would make that a lot easier.
