Summary: visual diff at file history should show single file diff

Initial Comment:
The file history log is generated once you right click a file and then select 
file history.

If you perform a visual diff against selected, the difference between two 
revision of a file should be shown not the difference of two changelists.

This is currently the limitation of the context menu history log which 
interpret the context menu of the changelist not the file history regardless of 
which view you are in.

Message:
I see your point on the 'diff with...' menus. However, the changelog's file
revision view works more like a filter-by-selected-files mode (see the
other modes on the pull-down menus on the 'Filter' toolbutton), by design.
That's way you get all the context menus on the history window like in
other filter modes. 

So, while it may seem confusing at first glance, it's really not a bug as
far as the current design is concerned. If it serves to comfort, you are
not missing anything on the diff output. You simply get more than you
wanted ;-)
