If i try to push to refs/stash i get remote rejected (funny refname).  Is this
the intended behavior?

Yes. The stash ref itself isn't all that useful. The list of stashes is
actually in the reflog, which is not pushable. And that is also
intentional; stashes were really meant to be short-term. If you want
something longer term that can be pushed, make a branch.
