I do this the whole time, creating many small commits, fixing up, squashing etc but to keep things a bit orderly I also usually do the rebase -i fairly often in order not to end up with more fixup commits that are easy to fit on screen. But yes: this workflow seems to suit me particularily well and changed the way I work with git. And it tends to lead to a nicely crafted, clear and easy to follow history of all steps of adding a new feature and/or refactoring things and made me more productive and seems to cause less bugs/mess overall because I review pieces of code more often.
