This hunk by itself feels like it is going in the right direction.
The HEAD does not have it, and even though there is idx, it merely
is an i-t-a entry.

Don't you need to special case the call to show_modified() at the
end of this function as well, though?  idx is i-t-a, and tree has a
concrete object.  Should it appear as if the path already exists in
the index, or should we pretend as if idx is not yet there?

For example, after this sequence:

    $ git init
    $ >void
    $ git add void
    $ git commit -m void
    $ git rm --cached void
    $ git add -N void

HEAD has "void" with an empty blob, the index has i-t-a.  I am not
sure if we should say something about path "void" when asked:

    $ git diff --cached

Perhaps something like this to cover that case?

	/*
	 * Something removed from the tree?
	 */
-	if (!idx) {
+	if (!idx || (ix->ce_flags & CE_INTENT_TO_ADD)) {
		diff_index_show_file(revs, "-", tree, tree->sha1, 1, tree->ce_mode, 0);
		return;
	}
