Workflow and motivation:

I use HG (but for git the workflow is very similar)

    1. I call vc-dir

    2. I select the files I want to commit

    3. I use vc-diff

    4. In the diff file I manipulate hunks

    5. I either use

       1. commit-patch, a perl script that allows to submit
          the edit diff file as patch.

       2. Or the solution implemented by Dmitry which currently dwells
          in Emacs master


Now sometimes if the diff file is huge, I might only want to commit 2
out of say 20 hunks.

So instead of killing 18 hunks, I'd like to mark the hunks I would like
to delete and somehow delete them in one go (kill-region-hunk is not
implemented)

So what you propose, would serve this purpose?
