I won't have time right now to comment on the previous three, because they
are not my code (meaning, I need to dig around before I can intelligently
answer -- maybe when I have free time).  What you expected does sound very
sensible, though.

>  4. Logical AND/OR operation.

The --grep and --author search of "log" family shares git-grep logical
expression engine, so if you somehow can come up with a way to pass --and
(or even better, --all-match) from the command line just like we can give
them to git-grep, searching with combinations of and/or/not should be doable.
