hg view vs. hg glog

Hi,

I've read on this list that 'hg glog' uses a more sophisticated
algorithm for visualizing the revision graph than 'hg view' does.
Indeed, 'hg glog' can sometimes create a much narrower graph.

However 'hg view' is much better in a very important aspect: it tends to
put the heads on the top of the graph, while with 'hg glog' the tip is
on the top (of course), but the additional heads tends to disappear
somewhere below.

Wouldn't it be possible to raise the heads to the top in 'hg glog', too?

Regards,
Alpar
