VCS workflow annoyance: You cannot immediately diff your changes when submitting

Version Control

-

Prerequisite: Project under version control with asset serialization mode set to "Force Text"

1. Check out an asset
2. Modify some simple setting of asset (so you know what to look for)
3. Right click the file in list of "Outgoing" changes and select "Diff Against Head"

Expected: Diff tool shows the change to the asset
Actual: No difference between files (since file hasn't been persisted to disk yet)

If pressing Ctrl+S/Cmd+S to save, then you will get the scene checked out as well, even though this doesn't have any changes.

My favorite workflow would be that I from the "Submit" window could easily view diff for each file. Preferably using keyboard shortcuts only, but can use external tool
