Hi,

I see lyx comparison feature broken for main two reasons:

1) it produces char-like diffs spilled across the words and sentences even for 
word-like changes which makes it totally unreadable for naked eye (bug #6889)
2) it's superslow on any non trivial changeset

Agreed. And your plan looks plausible enough to me, though I do not know much at all about diff algorithms. But I do think a mixture of word and character level diffs is most useful.

If it weren't too difficult, a preference setting for word-only diffs might be welcome. That would speed things up a ton.
