Description

It would be great if the diffs between page revisions were word-based (like

Wikipedia) rather than line-based. Git seems to have some intelligence
about this (see, e.g., git diff --color-words:
http://idnotfound.wordpress.com/2009/05/09/word-by-word-diffs-in-git/ ) but
not sure if it is programatically accessible.
