Nice summary.

I'm not sure if the '# dispatch' comment is correct here now that
%actions hash is moved away from actual dispatch (selecting action
to run)

I would use here pattern matching, but your code is also good and
doesn't need changing; just for completeness below there is alternate
solution:

You meant here

This hunk is IMHO incorrect. First, $refname is _either_ $hash, or
$hash_base; it cannot be both. Second, in most cases (like the case
of 'shortlog' action, either explicit or implicit) it is simply $hash;
I think it can be $hash_base when $file_name is not set only in
singular exception case of 'tree' view for the top tree (lack of
filename is not an error, but is equivalent to $file_name='/').

I _think_ the '# dispatch' comment should be left here, and not moved
with the %actions hash.

I would _perhaps_ add here comment that multivalued parameters can come
only from CGI query string, so there is no need for something like:
+ $params{$name} = (ref($$name) ? @$name : $$name) if $$name;

This fragment is a bit of ugly code, hopefully corrected in later patch.
I think it would be better to have 'refactor parsing/validation of input
parameters' to be very fist patch in series; I am not sure but I suspect
that is a kind of bugfix for current "$project/$hash" ('shortlog' view)
and "$project/$hash_base:$file_name" ('blob_plain' and 'tree' view)
path_info.
P.S. It is a bit of pity that Mechanize test from Lea Wiemann caching
gitweb code is not in the 'master' or at least 'pu'. Using big, single,
monolithic patch instead of patch series of small, easy reviewable
commits strikes again... ;-(
