Interesting. Anyone cares to hack up a minor mode to do this indicator? ;P 

I acknowledge that highlight-changes-mode is useful, but I think this
first-column indicator is very useful in some occasions. In fact, I think this
is what I desire:
- on changed line, put an indicator
- and for changed text, just underline and preserve the color wrt font-lock

However, I can't think of a way to do the second point. Clues? (Well the
reason is that I don't want to create another set of all / a chosen subset of
faces just to achieve that effect. But of course, if there is no better way to
do it, then this duplicated face approach would work in theory...)
