[Wish]_Merge: avoid unimportant differences

Question

During a merge operation, it's very common going through a lot of useless differences, such as:
- changes in query test values;
- useless trailing spaces in queries/expressions;
- changes in node positions (useful, but not crucial).

This is really a drawback on factories having several teams and projects running at the same time. It's time consuming and error prone.

Some of the options should be clearly identified as not being crucial, and/or the user should have the ability of filtering them out, so he can focus on the crucial items.
