I should have provided a definition, sorry.  By "your" scheme, I meant
the one where one is restricted to deleting existing lines, and thus
deletes '-' lines to disable them; by "my" scheme, where one is free
to edit and changes '-' lines to context to disable them.

At least it's my current understanding that, under the above
definition, "your" scheme is what you actually proposed in
  http://www.spinics.net/lists/git/msg67478.html
  [why doesn't Google find gmane?]
but I misunderstood and implemented "my" scheme.

[Let's just forget about the original patch at the top of the thread;
in retrospect, it _is_ clunky, and the UI didn't get any replies in
favour.]
