--- Comment #6 from Kunal Mehta (Legoktm) <legoktm.wikipedia(a)gmail.com> ---
Actually, I'd very much like to see better diff support for pywikipedia. I dont
know why I missed that bug =\)
I see in those bugs several comments about complexity changes, saying that a
patch could change complexity from O\(n\*m\) to O\(n+m\), which certainly looks
interesting. If char-by-char comparison provides better diffs, at a lower cost,
what exactly is the reason for not supporting in Python? :s
Two things to look at during implementation:
\* Would it provide interesting diffs for all cases? \(if one case is improved
while other matches get worse, it's not so interesting anymore\)
\* Performance changes for big diffs.
Good luck =\)
