Navigate across file revisions

[stephtr]

When opening a specific file revision ("GitLens: Open Revision...") it would be nice to additionally have "Open Previous/Next Revision" buttons in addition to the existing "Open Changes with Previous/Next Revision" buttons.

Could you provide a use-case as to why those commands would be useful? How would you use them differently than the changes?

My use-case would be for writing longer texts (in my case scientific publications; for programming I don't see any use).
When comparing different versions of paragraphs (spanning over multiple lines), it often is not enough to see the words/sentences which changed, but (at least for me) it is important to check the reading flow of whole paragraphs.

Here's a use case: I am inspecting a specific commit and see a block of code was moved from one file to another. I want to open the file that the code was moved out of at the previous revision so I can blame that block of code.

It would also be good if this context menu could have a "Open file at previous revision" option
