In the same buffer?  Then you'd have to give up on the capabilities of
one of diff-mode or log-view-mode (as we can't currently use multiple
major modes in a single buffer).

If you'd want diff and log in separate buffers, we can make a deal: I
can write the few lines needed to compute both buffers, if you write the
part to display the 2 buffers.

Dream on :-)
