I see. It has nothing to do with CVS, but rather with people using the diffs.
That's a good point, but it's been clouded a by (subconsciously) blaming
CVS. Anyhow, how many people are still using those diffs? 

And say, even if we had binary .gifs in the tree, the diffs are not useless 
by any stretch of imagination, as the images are non-functional. That is, even 
if the diff does not catch the image change, there's no big harm done. And 
how often do they change nowadays?

In other words, it's a good point in theory, but I doubt it's a big problem in
practice...
