Then line numbers will be incorrect, and also the buffer won't be
editable. And maybe there are other drawbacks of this approach. OK, I
admit that editable blame buffers is not a very important feature, but I
think that it's a good thing that line numbers are correct. And looking
at this from the application developer's viewpoint: just because Emacs
has limitation around overlays, they shouldn't choose a worse solution.
Especially if one doesn't know about the limitation beforehand, but it
emerges after 90% of the application is finished.
