I do remember that I simulated that feature a few times (either by adding the to-be-keep stuff (hunks, not only files) to the index and use --keep-index, and sometimes by making a temporary commit (to make sure to not lose anything) and then stash). So I think there is a valid desire of the feature. However, going further, the next feature to be requested could be "git stash --patch" ;D This leads me to think that the mentioned simulation of partial stashes might be something everyone might come up with who has basic understanding of git features and "git stash", and might be the more flexible and probably better solution to the problem.
