Please point out exactly where support for DiffX was implemented in either Mercurial or SVN.

DiffX is a bit younger than the tooling I've written, but I have added custom diffing tools to the SVN client for one team I worked with. I've also written plenty of tools that used the information provided by a VCS (sometimes even poking around in the server-side data), but external to it. So given a few days to refresh my memory on the interfaces, I could probably whip something up for SVN pretty quickly.
