Do you mean that when you have a file limit, the diff window should
just show the diffs for those files, not any other files the commit

Yes. The same way "git log -p" works by default.
With perhaps a checkbox to toggle the "--full-diff" behaviour.
That would be easy enough to implement in gitk.
Well, the "--merged" case is slightly trickier, since git will figure out
the pathnames on its own (it limits pathnames to the intersection of the
names you give one the command line *and* the list of unmerged files, ie
the "filter" becomes "git ls-files -u [pathspec]".
But goodie. I look forward to it ;)
