When selecting an annotation from the annotation bar and invoking Show annotations for Previous, the previous version of the file is opened however the cursor stays on the first line in the file. I would expect it to be automatically positioned on a line closer to the context in the original file. Indeed the position cannot be precise because the line actually changed between the revision but the context should be determined as close as possible.
