When the compare editor is opened, it applies the patch to the file in the workspace and then compares the results. This obviously fails unless the local workspace file is at the same revision as the patch base and has no local changes.

We should set up an extension point and allow SCM plugins to contribute the contents of a file corresponding to a specified source code repository, path, and revision.
