Diffing a text file against a binary file breaks the text file's editor

[fabiospampinato]

Why one would diff a text file against a binary file I don't know, I did it by mistake, but since the code --diff ./text ./binary call doesn't throw any error I don't expect it to be so brittle that stuff break.

Yeah, this is a consequence of us sharing all editor inputs and the binary diff editor calling setForceOpenAsBinary.
