I agree that connecting it with the editor might be sensible; I'm not
likely to work on an emacs version, though. :)

One of my other long-standing annoyances with using "raw" git-blame is
that it shows me a bunch of commits, but then I have to open a new
window and cut and paste the hash to actually _see_ the commit. That's
why I think something like tig makes sense, where you can jump between
different views very easily. An editor extension should be able to do
the same thing.

Agreed, I noticed that as well (especially because the enormous font and
spacing choices of GTK made sure you could only see the first couple of
lines :) ).

I'll look into what's out there for vim; there's quite a bit of
extensibility if you buy into things like the perl support.
