I think Claus' original idea of putting *some* of the additional 
information into the existing graph view (maybe as a user option) is 
actually pretty good and does a good deal of what's currently missing 
in graph view.

Having an alternative (not replacement) hierarchical multi-column tree 
view of the file history (with separate columns representing the 
various pieces of information) would be great as well, but I'd really 
keep it as an alternative, since I think the timeline can be very 
nicely viewed with today's graph view.
