I think you are missing what David wants.

David does *not* want a new global strategy. Adding those is fairly easy.

David seem sto want a new per-file merge strategy, with the bog-standard 
recursive merge. We've talked about that possibility in the past, but we 
don't do it now. We always end up doing just the three-way merge.
