I'd use "git gui" a lot more if I could split hunks in it (like you  
can
in "git add --interactive").

Problem is, I have zero knowledge of Tcl/Tk. Can someone who has
knowledge of this offer an opinion on whether this would be a  
feasible
project for a beginner? I'm willing to have a shot at it, but  
before I
embark on this I'd like to know if others consider it useful and  
doable!

Look at the sub-thread that started here:

http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/68091

Be sure not to skip the explanation why --unidiff-zero is dangerous.

Ah, yes now I remember seeing that thread. I didn't actually like what  
was proposed in that patch (hunk-splitting on arbitrary, user- 
selectable lines) and much prefer what "git add --interactive" does  
(explode a hunk deterministically into multiple hunks wherever there  
are intervening context lines).

Cheers,
