I think your proposal is a reasonable idea and a very convenient service
for users ... but there's zero chance that committers are going to
accept the additional work and the resulting uglification of the
document source.

If it can be done by post-processing the XML and finding the
differences, to automatically insert some markup that lets the UI show
the differences as you suggest, then we can discuss ways to integrate
that.
