With this option, the changed words are shown inline. For example,
if a file containing "This is foo" is changed to "This is bar", the diff
will now show "This is " in plain text, "foo" in red, and "bar" in green.

I am probably the only person who finds it useful, but there
is a high coolness factor attached to it.
And the libxdiff library actually made it very easy to do. (Yes,
there are two nested calls to xdiff...)
