Interesting idea.

This isn't a skin-related issue, but one of the consequences of
action=diff. The handler for action=diff is, by default:

  SDV($HandleActions['diff'], 'HandleDiff');

(see pagerev.php).

Thus, we can change the results of action=diff by setting in config.php,
say:

  $HandleActions['diff'] = 'NewHandleDiff';

and writing the function NewHandleDiff(). In fact, the bulk of the work
is in PrintDiff(), which is somewhat more complex ;-)

Easily said, now all we need is someone to write the function.
