Also, why not send them to the recycle bin? I never really thought about it before, but that does seem a reasonable UX improvement for this case

I wonder if there's already a git extension to automatically stash the working tree on every clean/reset/checkout operation...

Because “the underlying Git nukes them right away, so why shouldn’t we perma-delete the files, too?”

Anything else’d be effort…

It was actually addressed in https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/issues/32459 – the GUI implied a different git command than what actually got executed!
