I agree that this is a terrible (and inconsistent) interface and I would love to see it changed. I do use messages on stashes all the time (because I can never remember their context a week later without a hint--just looking at the diff is not enough for me) but I would welcome this change. Definitely the first step would be introducing the "-m" option so people and tools could begin the switch to using it.
