Apologies for the multiple replies, I just remembered that I didn't
comment on this part.

My suggestion was really just me thinking aloud ("one idea I had...").
I was only stating that it would be possible to do this, there's no
value in actually doing this on its own, but the thought exercise
helped me validate my patch (at least to myself). If my patch were
flexible enough to handle all of the current built-in tools in a
generic fashion then it is a good sign that it should be able to cope
with a good portion of (as yet) unknown merge tools which is, after
all, the main point of my patch.

Charles.
