You can _already_ do this.

 1. user choose a commit

 2. user choose other commit with CTRL + RIGHT CLICK


One of the problems of qgit is that the features are not immediately
visible. This is a conscious choice to avoid cluttering the GUI.

Currently the _best_ way to have a  complete idea of qgit is to read
the handbook (press F1 key): it takes only 5 minutes and you can find
interesting features otherwise very difficult to find by accident.
