There's two things hg blame doesn't do which would be useful. First, the trivial one. I don't want lines annotated by change number, I want them annotated by the name of the person who checked it in. But, I'm sure that can be easily fixed with some simple post-processing filter, so it really falls into the bucket of "minor annoyances". The hard thing is I don't really want to know which change most recently touched the line of text. I want to know who really wrote it. It would be wonderful if hg were smart enough to be able to back-track through the change history and ignore trivial changes like whitespace, refactoring a function out of one file into another, etc. That's the real meat and potatoes of "blame". I want to know who I need to hit over the head with a clue-by-four once I fix a bug.
