Ah, but the problem is that guessing the action based on the object
sometimes depends on the context: for some cases the 'commit' action
is the correct one for commits, in other cases shortlog is preferred.
This is why I introduced the %views hash in some of my patches.

By the way, this is argument *for* selecting action when generating
link, if it is possible without incurring unnecessary (if you don't
follow the link) performance penalty.  For example in the case of
ref markers links, you can link to 'log' in log view, 'shortlog'
in 'shortlog' view, perhaps even 'history' in 'history' and 'tree'/'blob'
views; or just 'shortlog' in all other views (for "commit subject"
line heading).

So, I managed to get this feature into the latest version of the
refmark patch (v7). Hope it's really the final form 8-)
