Ah, that sort of makes sense. On the other hand you could run git-shortlog in a separate directory right now by piping the git-log output to "(cd somewhere && git-shortlog)", so...
Come to think of it, why not make git-shortlog take the same set of parameters as git-log takes (perhaps except --pretty)? Then the issues you raised starts to make sense and we would certainly want -m MAPFILE option there.
