Do you think that it doesn't work for SBCL?

Consider this in a wider context: boinkmarks, irc -- you have nice identifiers
to which you can mentally attach results, authors and changes..

I agree that it does work for SBCL especially well, because its commits
have a large granularity -- which, FWIW, isn't especially the case of ECL.
