[bug-diffutils] bug#52111: coloring bug in diff -y ? |

Hello,
I cannot realy determine if it is a bug or a whish ...
But as a human, "diff -y --color" does not color differences as I expected.
Deleted lines appear in red, added lines appear in green ... but modified lines
have the standard color.
The only way to see that a line has been modified is the '|' character between
the two colums.
For a coloring diff, that seems not enough to me for complex files ...
Should not we meet the same coloring decisions as without "-y" ?
What do you think ?
Please find enclosed a screenshot with a simple example : the modified line is
not colored.
Regards
Guillaume
