Exactly. Subversion will prepend the author and revision information 
inline. For example (taken from the svn book)

$ svn blame http://svn.red-bean.com/repos/test/readme.txt
      3      sally This is a README file.

I would do something like this... first we already have the following 
options at the top of every topic:

Download topic text | View in monospace font | View with minimal screen 
width. | Tab width set to 8 (change to 4)

I would just add one more that said something like "View with(out) line 
annotation". The wording could be different. This would just toggle 
showing line numbers, and showing line number, author, and revision.

CVS has annotate. I think this is common to most scm tools.
