[Wikipedia-l] Simplified & generalized diff selection

[Jeff Dairiki]

> Here's a proposal for an improvement: on the page's history, (cur) and

I think the interface is even cleaner with just a single column
of checkboxes.  (You have to check two.)

Current PhpWiki does this.  For an example, see:

(Try it with and without javascript to see two slightly different
interfaces.)
