So you are willing to incorporate a wdiff into cvs and/or cvweb? Cool.
Otherwise your comment is moo, sorry.
Of _course_ we can do cvs checkouts of both revisions and do wdiff on
the files, but that means additional work that is not needed.

Do not try to force a special editor on translators -- it won't work.
Still it holds: You need to check out a addition file to be able to do
the ediff/wdiff on them and remove them afterwards again. What for?
There is no need for it.
