However, it seems like a desirable way to do it.

Maybe let me throw in some code for discussion (test and documentation is missing, mainly to form an idea what the change in options should be). I admit the patch below is concerned only with diff.renames, but whatever we come up with for merge should be reflected there, too, doesn't it?
