My thoughts (also for Junio, I guess..):

If y'all feel that it can live with the rest of the git commands then that would be great =)

I'm definitely willing to help maintain difftool. It's a low-maintance script and making it easily available means more testing which is good. I should probably look at the regression tests in place for mergetool and see if I can start actually testing difftool using a similar strategy.
