I think that is more difficult to implement and would take (a lot?) more time
to compare
(what would be the size of blocks to look for?).
With ref points could could do something like:
a b
*1* *3*
blk1 blk2
*2* *4*
*3* *1*
blk2 blk1
*4* *2*
*X*: reference points, added manually
How to visualize this is another problem;
I would suggest you need to select a code block (left or right)
and that the other side scrolls afterwards to be aligned
e.g.: select blk1 on the left:
a b
*3*
blk2
*4*
*1* *1*
blk1 blk1
*2* *2*
*3*
blk2
*4*
blk2 is ingored/not highlighted

Subject: Re: compare code block(s)
How about having meld be able to detect the movement of blocks of
code and show those differences.
I.e. for two files
a b
blk1 blk2
blk2 blk1
Meld could report a movement rather than one deletion (in file a)
and one addition (in file b).

I've been able to "help" meld do this by (temporary) inserting
some unique text ( e.g. '%%%&&&%%%') in both files
... some times you have to save and reload too

Mostly because I have a (bad?) habit of changing the order

A relatively easy way to implement this would be a right
click to add a synchronisation point and than let meld
search for a similar line in the other file and also add a
synchronisation point in that file.
The "ignore the rest" part I can add easily in my own brain.
