And the lack of filenames and the tree object name at the root level
means you do not get anything out of the attribute subsystem, which
in turn may affect a few more things.

Unfortunately the format used in the output from "diff --raw" does
not capture this.

Does this want to be a building block for the server side diff?
Would it be a bit too low level for each "request" to comparing only
two blob objects?  Can we place a lot more assumptions on the
relationship among blob pairs that appear in the --stdin request
(e.g., they all come from the same tree and share the same attr
stack to look up attributes applicable for them)?
