I did not look into it in detail (as the origin/sb/diff-color-move series ought to help here, but I am in the mid of rewriting that again to have a better design; also on my laptop, such that I'd have install that series). I think this commit represents another common case of code movement, where you would not just move around code, but also add/remove some keywords (e.g. the static word in C, or a class name changes in Java/C++) Maybe we would want to not just color up moved blocks but show the adjacant lines of moved blocks in a word diff (such that the class name change would be highlighted) in a comment or such.
