I love tig. I have an ad-hoc fork of it adding a new window which displays a preview of the selected file in the diff prelude section of the diff window, so I don't have to navigate through the single window. It is very helpful to browse the files in a diff easily. (https://github.com/LucasPayne/tig https://github.com/LucasPayne/tig) I swear I will clean up the fork soon, I just implemented it in whatever way worked. I do something similar to what you are doing with Kakoune daemon mode, but I work in the shell within a vim context. I have bound "e" in diff/stage views of tig to send a message to the current vim to open a new tab for that file at that line. I have not tried magit yet but am going to now to at least extract some great ideas from it and somehow get it in my current workflow.
