Here and in the git-rebase--interactive you have access to the SHA of
the failed pick so you could run git log --patch and git colored output

Yes. My first revision I actually did "git diff" here. The only
problem is inconsistency because we can't color "git am --show-patch"
the same way, the patch source is in text format, not in the repo. But
if people are ok with that I sure would switch to "git show".

and it would use the pager in the same way as 'git am --show-patch' does

format-patch does set up pager. If it does not I would be very
annoyed. I added this for convenience after all.
