the way (and the changeset its in) may not even appear in the diff.
also, changesets are not atomic, so they don't have a single time -
they have a created_at time and a closed_at time which can be up to
24h apart.

however, brett is testing a new form of diffs that contain all edits,
which should solve that problem.

cheers,
