... the same object, I suspect you wouldn't even notice that the
hexadecimal digits you see on the screen have one digit longer than
usual ;-).

That's it precisely! :) I do *not* notice that the hash from git-blame
has one more hexadecimal character than the central abbrev setting; so I
just go ahead and blindly cut n' paste it, using the mouse, from the
terminal, to the editor search box ...

Which means that there does not need any configuration variable to
trigger the new behaviour to protect your workflow from breaking, I
think, and instead we can just go ahead with the "-b then no extra
column for '^'" change, right? ;-)

Yes, certainly!

Thank you!
