I'm also thinking that perhaps a per-character approach might be
useful here instead of a per-word one (it would make that last hunk
look better in the mock-up screenshot that I posted); if I go the  per-
character route then that suggests that "--color-chars" might be the
right option name, and the color slots would then be
color.diff.new.char and color.diff.old.char.

Any feedback or suggestions before I get in too deep?

I personally find your "prposal" picture too loud to my eye.

Yes, mine too. I wouldn't actually use those colors in practice.  (Doubly so because the "removed" color looks like the "whitespace  error" color.)

I'll whip something up with non-garish defaults.

Cheers,
