I'm honestly having trouble with that screenshot, but I *think* that the
bottom pane is the merged output? in which case I think what you're asking
for is instead to add the middle pane (i.e., the common ancestor).

That seems like a big change to our merge model, which is to present the
two sides and the merged output as the central pane.

Have you tried starting a conflict resolution from Meld itself (i.e.,
running `meld .` in the repository where you have a conflict and opening
the conflicting files)? That gives you an IMO better view where the middle
pane shows the pre-merged code, but substitutes the common ancestor for
actually conflicting chunks. I realise that this isn't what you're asking
for, but it *might* be good enough.

cheers,
Kai
