I think we don't need to parse HTML diffs, we use the API to get info about revisions and users, and difflib to show text diffs. Detection of the number of vandalism warnings on users' talk pages is interesting, but should not be bundled in the framework unless it is easily localized. Also, the patch does not appear to exist anymore on JIRA.
