It would be nice if base64 were decoded into readable text, and diff'ed. The main use case that comes to mind is Amazon EC2 user data, but there may be other use cases.

BTW if this is ever implemented keep in mind that sometimes the base64-encoded value is a gzipped binary stream and not plaintext.
