Maybe a 'short' diff (256 characters, say) of the full diff is sent out,
with a link to the full diff back on the server. Small changes are included
in the email; large changes need to use a browser.

Additionally, either the submitter does the diff, or a background does the
diff, or something even smarter that someone finally thinks of.
