   If you have a longer function which is modified a lot
   of times and you are interested in a chunk of code in
   it and want to see only its modifications then a
   feature which can pinpoint the modifications in the
   chunk can be much more useful than grepping the
   changelog.

No doubt.  I address only the quality of the usefulness,
not its quantity, which (due to its Quality component) is
necessarily pov-specific.  My message was a semi-bitter
grousing response to the "I am surprised" bit, that's all.
