If you bring "intended allowed command-line orderings" into the
picture, then I would have to say that any effort that encourages
the use of paths before revs like this patch does should be frowned
upon---if anything, we should actively discouraging people from
feeding paths before revs, and this change goes in a wrong direction
by adding a special case only to annotate, giving another excuse to
people who think "git log path rev" should work "because annotate
does".

If the change is just to 'annotate path rev', and does not change
'blame path rev', it would be less distasteful, though.

I'd have to think about it.
