The blame output on the left-hand-side is already wide enough to be even annoying. A patch that might interest me personally would be one that takes the --format option (copy from the log family plus add some that are only useful in "git blame", like "line number") to allow customizing the left-hand-side of the output, and allows us to reimplement ugly hacks^W^W ad-hoc options (like -l, -t, --date, -f, -n, -s, -e) in terms of that. With such a feature, of course your "commit summary" will come almost for free in the form of --format=%s I would think. A change that adds even more ad-hoc options is probably not welcome, I would have to say.
