[Mediawiki-api] Get diffs?

[Brianna Laugher]

Hi,

Is it possible the API could provide diffs? Ie you provide two
revision IDs, get a diff-style output back. This is something that is
available through MediaWiki itself via the history page, but not the
API.

<http://svn.wikimedia.org/viewvc/mediawiki/trunk/phase3/includes/Diff.php?view=markup>
doesn't look like it is particularly straightforward to implement, and
rather than doing so, couldn't it be made available via the API?

Also... a 'diff view' would also be much more useful in the page
history feeds. As they stand now they seem quite useless to me.

Thoughts?

cheers
Brianna
