Hello,

I recently had to review some code written for large terminals and
formatted in a way that makes heavy use of vertical alignment.

Looking at differences with meld, I was never sure whether I could see
all the differences, or whether I was missing something at the right
side of the screen, so I spent some effort in scrolling right and left.

This made me wish for meld to somehow visually distinguish whether the
rest of the line that would require right-scrolling to be seen is
unchanged, or whether it does have changes.

I'm attaching two example files that can be compared side by side, and
unless meld is run on a very wide window, example1.c would have a rather
significant change that could currently be easy to miss.

This would be a very useful feature indeed.
