The first step is to define the behaviour of the would-be-added option.
For example, is it only valid for working copy targets? How does it
behave when one or both targets is a URL?

    % $svn help diff
    diff (di): Display the differences between two revisions or paths.
    usage: 1. diff [-c M | -r N[:M]] [TARGET[@REV]...]
           2. diff [-r N[:M]] --old=OLD-TGT[@OLDREV] [--new=NEW-TGT[@NEWREV]] \
                   [PATH...]
           3. diff OLD-URL[@OLDREV] NEW-URL[@NEWREV]
