Is there an easy way to select a specific number of one type of unit out of a group?
What I mean is, say I have 10 Stalkers in a group, I want to select 4 of them and have them go check something out. I have to hold shift and click 4 of them individually or draw a box. Sometimes during a battle though or when timing is critical this can be very clumsy as the units could be running all over and be mixed in with other units.
Is there any way that I could say, hold some key combination and simply single click the same unit repeatedly and with each click it would add another nearby unit of that same type to my selection? Or something like that?

Using your example, you could double click or Ctrl + click on a Stalker to select all of them and then Shift + click the left-most Stalker listed on the HUD six times. This would remove six Stalkers from the originally selected ten. Whether this is any less cumbersome, you be the judge.
