Which cases are thinking of where --three-way can't be used and wiggle
doesn't do a good job?

What's sad about Emacs?

What kind of GUI tool are you imagining?

Currently with --three-way and wiggle, you can use xxdiff (which I warmly
recommend), and in the rare cases where wiggle doesn't do the job, I'm not
sure what kind of GUI tool could help.  Or are thinking of an interactive
GUI form of wiggle (that's my dream for Emacs's diff-mode).
