We're gonna need it on debsources anyhow, in particular to implement the "edit" feature suggested by Raphael Geissert. What we could do is to factorize as much as possible the common parts in a common place, e.g., python-debian. But I'm not sure there is actually that *much* code to write, considering that 1) we will probably invoke the real debdiff as an external program anyhow and 2) I plan to delegate diff highlighting to the javascript toolkit we already use.
