[edit]
XFDcloser (now a gadget) is this issue's featured script
Enterprisey's fancy-diff should now be able to handle everything the parser can throw at it.
A number of requests are listed at Wikipedia:User scripts/Requests#Some ideas.
Some of the remaining ideas include scripts to:
- expand a diff until it covers all contiguous edits made by that user
- highlight which content (in the HTML) comes from which template
- hyperlink "per X" to the last comment X made
- show a pop-up section preview when you hover over its TOC link
...and many more, all available at Wikipedia:User scripts/Requests
