Thank You! I completely agree! (Vim is already doing just about anything else right!)

Thank you,
I tried your patch, and I think it only works when I call
gvim -d a.txt b.txt

If I switch a and b, I have the same issue...
gvim -d b.txt a.txt

In the meantime (as I still prefer a patch), this seems to be working when calling from the command line:
gvim -d b.txt a.txt +"if diff_filler(1) | winc w |endif | 0"

in my case, I only compare 2 files, so I check if the file in the current window as filler lines above line 1; if so, I move to the other window. Then, in the active window after that, I go to the top of the file.
