Oh, please please please make this happen.
Also, if at all possible, please mark offsets that are referenced by a
branch some way. I do think that the "size of instruction" can be a
very valid piece of information when looking at instruction-level
profiles, but quite frankly, I'm also 100% sure that the fact that an
instruction is a branch target is *more* important.
Now, fancy arrows etc might be too hard to do (especially without
cluttering things up too much), but marking just the targets would
already be lovely. IOW, turn this mess:

or something. I think the "callq ffffffff8102a730 <__phys_addr>"
could also be prettified with *zero* downside.
Sure, leave some magic keycombination to get the "full information", but ..
