Actually, as far as I can tell, git already has a hell of a lot more 
porcelain than pretty much any non-IDE type traditional SCM. Certainly 
more than CVS.

Yeah, I'm not counting things like Eclipse etc. I'm talking about "plain 
SCM" environments, ie just basic SVN or CVS. What are we missing in that 
department? (The only thing I can think of is a diff colorizer, which some 
prople seem to really want).
