Your suggestion might be great for simplifying tensor component notation, as 
one then can omit separators like {} or |. But then what would happen, even 
perhaps not that common, if one would need to have it stacked somewhere else in 
the formula. So in my mind, this would be just top level \unstackscripts … 
\stackscripts … \unstackscripts.

The other idea would be something like \partialstackscripts, but actual demand 
is unclear. :-)
