Comment:

 Tested [attachment:35667.4.patch] on the post mentioned in #meta135 and it
 makes it worse. I'll try to get an export of this post with its revisions
 so we can use it for further testing.

 I think we have go a step higher in the stack and check why
 `compute_string_distance()` is even needed and/or if the "old MediaWiki
 Diff" on which `WP_Text_Diff_Renderer_Table` seems to be build on got some
 updates which we can use.
