You know what would be great?  If when asking whether to save the buffer, emacs
would offer to show the diff.

I like your suggestion.

What I do is "undo" which tends to remind me what / where the buffer got changed.  Often it was by accident.  And if I want to keep the changes, I redo and then save.
