I would view this more like "Porcelain layers reserve the right to change the behaviour to suit human-end-user needs, without having to complicate the system with extra configuration knobs."

But if other people want to do a follow-up patch to cleanly add such a configuration, I would not object to it. The main desire of this patch is *not* to make the option to have range-diff at the end of a single patch "series" available, but to make that the default.

Thanks.
