I'm just saying that with HTML diffs, presented via gitweb in graphical
web browser, you have more possibilities, more formatting to use.
Why not make use of it?

Well, I'll make it nearly invisible in the "take 3". BTW. some people
liked this line, some were indifferent.

That was just to note that if you don't agree with default, you can change
it very easily. It is probably the time where people would disagree (for
example infamous "redundant links" debate) on the gitweb UI; the possibility
to tailor it easily to your own UI concepts and ideas is in my opinion
very important (and very nice).
