Indication of difference between files without comparing each one individually
During folder comparison you're shown a list of all files (which ones are new, missing, different, same). If, from this view, I could see an indication of HOW different they are. I would like to quickly, at a glance, see "this file has been slightly altered" or "this file was completely rewritten." Again, the idea being quickly, without individually comparing each file (for large directories, this is quite time consuming).
This could be simply "Number of Lines Changed" or "Percentage of Lines Changed" or a little bar graph in between each differing file. Just a quick, way to get a…

Persist open compare tabs
Provide a way to save my set of open code compare tabs. I have a dozen pairs of directories that I often compare, and I want to be able to open all of them, and to save this set for later use.

Stacked Current Line View
Add another display that shows the currently selected line from each document above each other. It allows one to quickly see differences in the currently selected line that might ordinarily be difficult to see. You also have to do less horizontal scrolling with long lines this way.

Hover area to temporarily disable the highlighting
Sometimes it is not friendly because the highlighting obscures the differences, it highlights every other letter or is just plain not useful in some portions of a file. We need a hover area to temporarily disable the highlighting, just as Windows 7 has a desktop show hover button on the taskbar corner.

Added support for VBScript, WiseScript, PowerShell
More options for these as the default language, or detection of similar structures with indications on the tool bar as to which one was applied. Select these on the fly during an active comparison, or spawn the new results in the restructured format.

"Ignore comments" option in folder compares
Here is one obvious use case that's impacting me now. I'm comparing two versions of a software package (the older version has changes I made). But the newer version has an updated license text at the top of each .cs file, so every file is marked as changed, making the folder compare useless in this case.

Replace Default Git Merge and Git Diff Tool with Code Compare
Replace the Default git Merge and git Diff Tool with Code Compare in TortoiseGit, for Svn this is already done, so it should be relative simple and straight forward

Scripted diff management
Allow commadline based integration of diff analysis and hooks to perform actions on the result.
The idea here would be to allow simple tasks to be automated; eg:
1. Sync 2 folders (copy modified or new files to target, remove files from target when not present in source).
2. Validate same; eg pre-commit hook these two files/folders are the same
3. Report on changes; eg html/text/whatever nightly diffs on web dir, etc.For 1 above could also have a commandline to execute on add, modify or delete. (eg svn add ?(targetFile), svn delete ?(targetFile), etc)

Merge for sln, project files based on an xml merge

Manually re-align compare points
Sometimes even the best automatic diff tool will match against the wrong lines. Some other diff programs offer a way to manually re-align these lines. It would be good if Code Compare introduced this feature too.
