For some time now, the SQLite and Fossil websites have been running on the
"retro-sbsdiff" branch of Fossil.  The retro-sbsdiff branch uses a vastly
simplified format for the side-by-side diffs that omits all of the colors
and decoration and provides plain-text output - essentially the same output
as you would get on the command-line using the -y flag.  Example:

   http://www.sqlite.org/src/info/21695c3476

I find the "retro" side-by-side diff to be much more readable, which is why
I am using it on the SQLite and Fossil websites, as well as on my desktop.
And I've heard no complaints from users about the retro sbsdiffs on the
website. But before I merge the retro-sbsdiff branch into trunk (and hence
purge the existing colorful sbs diff from the trunk) I thought I would as
for community feedback.  Are there strong preferences one way or another?
