The only two tools I have come across which do this are IBM's
Diff'n'Merge[1] and Palstar's sgdiff[2]. I've used sgdiff but not
the IBM product. Neither is exactly user-friendly :-)
If someone wanted to do something for the greater good of
humankind, it suppose it would be to write a diff which would
allow the independent comparison between two files of
(a) element structure in element content and (b) element
structure in mixed content, and output the diffs as parameterized
IGNORE/INCLUDE marked sections...I think :-)
Maybe you could write something using LTxml[3].
