You'll have to put that argument to the committers; but I expect a
cool reception. I think what would be more useful is if we could
somehow associated metadata with each commit. Right now, for example,
the author of a patch is not stored with the patch in any structured
way; it's just typed in, usually but not always as the last line of
the commit. So you can't easily find out what lines of code a certain
person has touched, for example. The sorts of problems that you're
talking about seem broadly in the same vein.
