Thanks.

I noticed another thing. The entries shown in "git stash list" look like this:

stash@{0}: js/stash: e1d32c1... Teach git-stash to "apply --index" stash@{1}: master: 5be6007... Rewrite "git-frotz" to "git frotz" stash@{2}: master: 36e5e70... Start deprecating "git-command" in favor of "git command" stash@{3}: master: 3b0d999... Merge branch 'jo/init'

But each of the stash is _not_ about these commits, but is about some change that happens to be on top of them.

So risking to make it a tad longer, how about doing this on top?
