I disagree. Your statement is misleading when you say you want the internal diff to do things like GNU diff can. What you want to do _in fact_ is not only modify the diff _output_, but the commit _input_. And I am not so keen on such filters. If I do not want to commit, I do not change it to begin with. Yes, your mysqldump is a special case here. But it is special anyway, as it is not source code.
