Has been discussed here already. A small problem is the syntax to pass
several options. --diff-options "-a -b -c" is not really satisfying,
because baz would have to do the tokenization which is usually the task of
the shell. You can imagine --diff-options -a -b -c \; (like find -exec),
or --diff-option -a --diff-option -b --diff-option -c.

Anyway, this wouldn't be hard to implement.

Don't do this in a global way, this would break scripts and front-ends.
