After seeing

./gitk --simplify-by-decoration --all

for the first time today I think now I know better what you mean.  
Nevertheless, compared to a separate branch-view, there are two points:
- How to I select a branch, if there is more than one branch on one commit  
(and thus on one line)
- Would it still be possible to create nice and fast one (or two) key  
commands for the most used every-day branch commands.
