I'm not convinced I'm looking at it in a very useful way from your
perspective: My C skills being spectacularly lacking for fixing the
core code, I am just writing an external python-based wrapper for "my"
users.

I will try to "productize" it sufficiently to send here in case it's
useful to someone, but all I can really offer the community-at-large
is confirmation that in principle, the approach works as you would
expect: With some small number of jit-fetches for rename-detection
during the revision walk(s), and with one blob-prefetch call
afterwards, "git blame" can be made to run cleanly/quickly in a
"filter:none" clone even on a file like "git.c", with hundreds of
revisions.
