I concur with this.  Sometimes the stashed changes are remnants of a
small hack or a very brief start to an aborted project that I stashed
when I needed to change branches.  I figure that they might be useful in
the future, but I don't care about them right now.  I may pick them up,
I may not, but I certainly don't want to be reminded of them constantly.
