Is this feature even useful with Lisp? I find it mostly useless,
here's a typical example:
git log -L :next-line:lisp/simple.el
Type this command in your repository, then watch the fun. More fun is
available when Git for some reason decides you asked about some
variable, not a function (and in Lisp we frequently have variables by
the same name as a function).
So I think until we fix this basic deficiency, extending that to more
symbols will just add to the mess. YMMV.
