OK, I think this would be whole project in itself, as far as I am
concerned.  Right now, I am interested in fixing this issue in a 'best
effort' mode, keeping most of the existing infrastructure for the sake
of consistency and limiting the unintended impacts, release a 2.1
tarball and then we can talk about this further if you like.

I am not ditching what you are saying.  Just that this place (patch
review and this bug report) doesn't seem like the best place for this
right now.

Rather, a new comparison algorithm altogether being a project in itself
(IMHO), it'd be better to keep this discussion under its own "feature
request bug report", I'd say.

I understand if you don't have time to review what I am proposing.  I'll
thus go ahead and look at your proposal a bit later.

Thanks.
