That is an interesting idea.

Perhaps this can be implemented as a new stage in the transformation
pipeline, I wonder?  There is currently no transformation that
modifies the blob contents being compared, but I do not think there
is anything fundamental that prevents one from being written.  The
new "limit to this function body" transformation would perhaps sit
before the diffcore-rename and would transform all the blobs to
empty, except for the part that is the body of the function the user
is interested in.
