Pretty nice... I have an idea, though, which would also unify the 
feature with hg log:

-a  takes a number of nodes and shows the entire ancestor graph of those 
nodes, not stopping at common ancestor. This is somewhat like hg log -fr 
node:0 for a single node.

-A  same, but stops at common ancestor. takes one merge node or two 
nodes. Pretty much what your -a does now.

Or vice versa. This would also provide the most useful aspect of the 
missing -f functionality to glog IMO. -f could perhaps be provided as well?

Both -a and -A are free for log and glog.
