I have look at that options and I find it is very convenient and
line-level browser will adopt that line syntax, too.

I think it is rationale for 'git blame' to allow more than one -L to
let the users see more than one block of code. But for a tool which
used to explore history, I think the user almost focus on one thread
of history. If the history split on some point, we should ask user for
choose one to go on. So, I think the line-level browser need not to
support such a thing. :)
