I agree with your conclusion. More than one commit-8 placed in a large group end up visually suggesting that they are separating the group into multiple pieces that have some meaning, which is not, because the contrast of zebra shading between groups is very subtle and is much weaker than commit-8 "clickable handles".

I am not suggesting to make the contrast of shading stronger; that would make things harder to read, and readability matters more on that page.

Will revert mine from "next" (along with the mistakenly dropped executable bit) and replace with your patch 1 and 2.
