Thanks for this; it looks great :-) As for the UI, should the stashed
commits be a new phase? If so, then there could be a new phase called
'hidden' (bad short option :-( ... maybe 'concealed'?) that would do
just that: not expose them to the user. Otherwise, we could not have a
new phase and use the already existing 'secret' changesets to hide
from the user?

I don't know how I feel about either idea, though.
