Syntax highlight + "$VCS blame"?

I occasionally issue a "$VCS blame" command (where $VCS may be
subversion, git, or mercurial in most of my use cases). It would be
nice to be able to see the original source in its "natural" syntax
highlighting, ignoring the blame leaders on each line.

I don't expect this would readily work for most syntax files, but
has anybody found a good workaround to get "blame" output to
highlight mostly like the underlying code?

Or, if there's some magic plugin/setting that grants my wish, I'd be
open to that too ;-)

FWIW, most of my code is python, so the text in question might look
something like

4 tchase if foo == bar:
4 tchase frob(thing)
8 jsmith wheedle(thing, foo)
21 mpolo zippidy(do_dah)
4 tchase log.info("Dronking the doozie")

(the "blame" leaders in each VCS differ, but can are
self-consistent; the above is Subversion output of revision#, username).

Thanks,

-tim
