line-range: teach -L/RE/ to search relative to anchor point
Range specification -L/RE/ for blame/log unconditionally begins searching at line one. Mailing list discussion [1] suggests that, in the presence of multiple -L options, -L/RE/ should search relative to the endpoint of the previous -L range, if any. Teach the parsing machinery underlying blame's and log's -L options to accept a start point for -L/RE/ searches. Follow-up patches will upgrade blame and log to take advantage of this ability.
