Salvador, you may have provided a UI hook to reduce the diff, but you're not fixing git annotate.

My personal experience in mozilla-central and comm-central was that holding blame/annotate sacred provided a lot of stop energy to improving the state of code, leaving the code generally worse off.

Especially with our git code-bases (or git mirrors of hg code-bases), "git log -p FILENAME | less" with search can be very fast, and provides an easy way to look for patches that touched a line of code. It even accepts "-w" and friends. And then you have the commit message there and can scroll up and down to look for related changes made in prior/subsequent commits, etc.
