That is all true. If we were to have a new 'grep' attribute that can be used to express 'It is OK to diff two versions of this path, but hits by grep in this path is useless' (and verse versa), the built-in macro attribute 'binary' should also be updated with it. A path being 'binary' currently means '-diff -merge -text' but it should also mean '-grep' in the new world, if we were to go in that direction.
