I was wondering if it'd be possible to upload a file to a temporary
location, and then diff it against its equivalent location in the cvs
repository.

Use case:  Verbosio will be able to edit XML, and will be used to edit
itself.  So for an end-user to be able to generate patches against
Verbosio trunk code, the end-user needs to get a diff from somewhere.
If this diff could be provided as a web service, then a XMLHttpRequest
via XUL Widgets's serverpost could access this service and generate
useful results for the user.  A guided XUL form (a la bugxula) could
then guide the user in submitting the diff as a bug and patch.

Any thoughts from the mozdev team?
