Rather than add a new switch to Subversion of (IMNSHO) dubious general value,
why not see how other applications handle this. Trac[1] does this already, as
does SVN::Web[2] (and I'm sure there are many more) just by using the regular
diff output. In particular, you might find the code in SVN::Web::DiffParser
illuminating...
