What is the attractiveness of using signs to indicate where changes
have taken place? When I follow changes, I'm more interested in
_what_ the changes were, not just that something changed. For this
I use DiffOrig or a variation that compares the current buffer with
the latest (or a specified) VCS version. Having a sign in the left
column doesn't tell me enough to be useful.

Gary
