Not at the moment, since it satisfies my need, and differencing on XML
is a slightly different task, and much easier, or much harder
depending. XHTML has to satisfy the XHTML DTD, and so there's specific
places and specific tags to use to mark changes.

With XML, it would either have to be arbitrarily defined (easy), or
according to each flavor's DTD (hard).

I'm up for it when I get some free time, if someone wanted to specify
what they needed.
