The diff between A and B would necessarily include all changes in between.

Not necessarily: Suppose you had made some changes to something then
refacotred it to generalize.  You might want to take a look at that
whoel change sequence.

Unless you are concerned about needing to read each
changeset incrementally to build the final diff, which is not necessary.

Yes, that was what I was refering to.   I could think about times when
such a feature would be useful, unfortunately, it would be very
cluttered to read.  Impossible in plain text I would think.  The only
way I could think to do that is to compare A to A+1; A+1 to A+2; ...
B-2 to B-1; B-1 to B and then put each incremental diff in a
collapsable column.  You could then expand or collapse each column as
you see fit.  The hard part would be to determine how many lines you
need to add in for 'spacers'.  Figuring that out might be an
interestiung challenge.

Respectfully,
Christopher
