feature request: partial-context diff

[Jamie Peabody]

Hi Thomas,

Kallithea looks cool, and I saw the Mergely integration that was done
there.  Looks good.  It should be possible to do it with folding.  It might
not be too difficult.  I am rather busy right now - but if someone wants to
have a go at it, I will give my assistance and support.

Jamie
