When consecutive lines have the same blame, only the first has the blame information visible in the gutter. This is helpful when the first line is visible in the viewport, but an irritant when the first line is not in the viewport: it necessitates scrolling up and down to view the blame of a single line.
Suggestions:
always-visible blame element for the topmost line in the viewport (e.g. position: absolute; top: 0)
blame information on every single line as in git blame output (perhaps reduced opacity on repeated lines to de-emphasize repetition)
