Why not. Will you implement it? There's *lots* of things that would be 
nice to have and there's never enough time to do them. Comparing 
files, why useful, is not core functionality of translator editor, so 
it has to wait until there's nothing more important or until somebody 
else implements it.

So? How exactly would a diff tool help here? You *do* have all the 
strings in the file as fuzzy entries, no amount of diffing will 
magically unfuzzy them.

Actually, you can, with msgcmp.
