First, git has tradition of introducing options (first) meant for gitweb,
and immediately making use of them. Examples: --git-dir=<path> option to
git wrapper because in mod_perl doesn't pass environmental variables to
subprocesses so setting $ENV{'GIT_DIR'} in gitweb wouldn't work;
--full-history option to git-rev-list for "history" view, because using
path limit instead of piping to git-diff-tree and using path limit of
git-diff-tree changed returned revisions, git-for-each-ref introduced
for better gitweb performance in "summary" view... So you wouldn't do
something unusual. And it is fairly easy to compile and install additional,
newest version of git.
Second, without --skip you have ugly tradeoff if you want to paginate
(search result, but not only that): either get pages*page-size revisions
and call parse_commit which in turn usually calls git-rev-list page-size
times; or get full info pages*page-size and skip (pages - 1)*page-size
bits of output.
And finally, --skip with your abandoned for now parsing revisions not
one by one, but by a bunch using one git command call would help
performance not only of non-pickaxe search, but also history view,
and log and shortlog views.

I'm not sure if it wouldn't be better to try to reuse git_log machinery,
just adding marking match, and removing everything but the immediate
context of match, to format_log_line_html... Just a thought...
