For large diffs (especially those with small scattered changes) it's much easier to scan the raw diff output in a text editor than it is to open 10s or 100s of tabs in BC.
The workflow isn't great however, if a change needs closer inspection, I have to find it in p4 and fire up a "real" diff.
What I'd love to see is a way to take the contents of each tab and stack them in a single view. It would be awesome to be able to scan like a diff and still dive in and edit/expand context interactively. I have attached a bad mockup of the layout. It's not quite right of course, I'd imagine all views would in fact share a single scrollbar, but you get the idea.
