I am not sure if I follow.  If these two cannot work well together,
then we should just reject the request as asking for incompatible
combination of options while we are parsing the command line
arguments, rather than arguing which one should trump the other
one---that would simply lead to "in my opinion, word-diff is more
important" vs "in mine, color-moved is more important", no?
