--- Comment #2 from Heiko Tietze <tietze.heiko at gmail.com> ---
Sounds like a reasonable enhancement. 

Today we have View > Track Changes that shows the modifications when checked
(option #1) or just the result (option #2). The checkbox has no effect when no
changes have been made. 

We could go with radio buttons 
Track Changes >
 ( ) Original (layout before the changes)
 (o) Modifications (as today with show TC checked)
 ( ) Final (as today with show TC unchecked)

Was thinking about a checkbox that enables these options but it makes not much
sense to have [x] Show Track Changes with (o) Original below.

And I don't see the need for the option original with modifications as this
just "underlines" the other part, which probably ends up in severe confusion
what option is active.

Weird effect of this new option is that changing the text with TC active and
"original" set would have no effect anymore - you do not see what you type. As
a counter measure we could automatically switch to "modification" when TC is
enabled.
