Yes, I think this is the direction we should be taking.  Poorly

Of course not. They are useful and user-friendly.

The only question is what should be the format by default.

Also, I think it'll help to have a --pretty="format:<string>"
equivalent to --format="<string>" so that we can introduce pretty
names like oneline, short, medium, full.  We can eventually deprecate
--format for consistency.

I don't see the point of --pretty. I think there should be shortcuts,
something like --hash for the SHA1s only, and --names for the refs
only, or something like that.
