The first looks like a good idea, but do you find a use case for the 
second?  The diff that is shown in org or report mode may be sort of 
random.  It is just an easy hack to reuse the same pattern code for 
context, org, and report modes, but there isn't an intent to see the diff 
produced by context mode in org or report mode.
