Ok, how about this? If you think I should add a bit about this to the 
manual, let me know. However, it seems like a fairly minor thing to me, 
and I don't want to distract the manual reader from the more-useful parts.

(I also welcome a suggestion on a shorter name than 
'vc-annotate-abbreviate-revision-in-buffer-name', but I wanted to be 
careful not to give the impression that this would apply to the revision 
IDs that you see in the VC-Annotate buffer's *contents*. I guess I could 
abbreviate some of the existing words though, like "revision" -> "rev".)
