Emacs (magit?) should use `git blame --porcelain`, and do its own
progress report, just like 'git gui blame' and incremental blame mode
of gitweb.

Actually... there already is git-blamed - Minor mode for incremental
blame for Git, and mo-git-blame - An interactive, iterative 'git blame'
mode for Emacs, both available on ELPA (Emacs Lisp Package Archive).
