Research direction
Start by reading the referenced pretty-assertions behavior and the implementation of colored_diff::PrettyDifference, then trace its rendering path. Done means differing characters are presented with boldface in the proposed style, with output checked against the stated readability goal.
Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
Description
pretty-assertions presents differences between characters by also making differing characters boldface (1), whereas colored_diff::PrettyDifference changes the background color behind those characters (2). The former is more readable and its readability is far less dependent on terminal color scheme.
My proposal is to implement presentation 1 in colored_diff::PrettyDifference.
