I have, and I can't see your patch doing what I want.
Sorry if I haven't made myself clear what I want, but I was thinking
about a shortcut for something like the following example sequence:

$ git show v1.4.0:git.c > git.c.v1.4.0
$ git show v1.4.4:git.c > git.c.v1.4.4
$ tkdiff git.c.v1.4.0 git.c.v1.4.4
$ rm git.c.v1.4.0 git.c.v1.4.4

Replace tkdiff with the differ of your choice.

At least for comparing 2 single blobs that behavior should be well
defined. For comparing multiple blobs, checking them out in 2 separate
directories and starting the differ with the directories could work, but
I'm more after the single-file case for now ... and that's also the one
that should be easy to start from gitk.

If there's a way to do that by setting the pager I'll be happy to do
so ;-)
