That's true. For the record, I'm trying to address item "hgweb links to 
ancestor's blame" of https://www.mercurial-scm.org/wiki/BlamePlan. (Cc 
Gregory would originally wrote this plan.)

In fact, I later realized that there already was a link to parent's 
annotate view in the header section of the gitweb template that serves 
quite the same purpose. So to avoid "cluttering" the interface, maybe we 
could suggest a 2-steps navigation:
1) click on some link in the first column of the annotate view, leading 
the annotate view at this revision, then,
2) navigate to parent(s) annotate view from the header of the page.

What do you think?


PS.: discarding this patch for now.
