The problem I had was "M-x save-buffer" (after resolving the conflicts in it manually) running "git add" on the resulting file, robbing from "git diff" an opportunity to help the user to see how the result looks relative to both branches. Do you mean that VC mode broke the same feature equally other SCMs, too? Do other SCM supported by VC backends take advantage of unmerged stages in the index (until you say "$scm add") by allowing you to verify the combined diff with "$scm diff"?
