Good idea! I constantly fall into selecting the wrong order of the
radiobuttons and therefore have to reverse the order of the diff after
a few seconds of confusion when looking at the diff. As I understand
your suggestion with by default selecting the chronological order I
think we could get rid of having two buttons for each changeset. As
long as you keep the "Reverse Diff" option in the changeset view you
can still change the diff if chronological order wasn't what you
wanted.

A good intutive user interface is IMHO one that doesn't need any
explanation in the documentation - KISS :-)

Another topic:
Fooling around with the anydiff feature left me wondering why diffs
spanning multiple revs does not display the commit messages... is
there a reason for this?
