the problem is, if I call e (ediff) from Magit and want to merge (e.g.)
my branch with the master branch, I don't really have access to both
versions - only to the version from the checked out branch.

ediff then gives me both versions in an ediff session (folded), but if I
try to change major-mode to fundamental I break the ediff session.
