Ideally, it'd annotate the file in my sandbox, showing revision
info for unchanged lines, and some special indicator for lines
that hold my uncommitted changes.  ISSUE: How to show deletions?
Simply as "N lines deleted", or should it show the lines
themselves, a la "diff -u"?

Failing that, I'd argue for annotating BASE -- partly by analogy
with diff, but mostly because it's closer to (my) ideal than is
HEAD.
