3) Showing when you move to a different blame chunk, by showing a
   one-line summary in the echo area.

There is even some prior art for this to borrow from, namely cperl-mode
shows information about syntax at given point in echo area (minibuffer
area) after some delay.  Just FYI.

Sure, there are a number of those (eldoc comes to mind). I think the
hardest part is figuring out what to show. A 40-charater hash is
probably not very useful. The problem is that the committer information,
date, and commit message first line takes up a lot of space. But we can
of course let the echo area grow to two lines, or even three.

I don't think I'll have time to cook something up right now, though.
