DiffDog does an excellent job of visually showing the differences between two XML documents. The "Export Differences" option produces a useful report. However, we want a combination of both: the report would be even more useful if there were an option to create an XML diff document that includes the entire content of the base document, plus changes. As it works now, you just get the differences with some context.

Perhaps it would help if I explained what we really want to do: create an HTML document that shows what has changed (preferably with hyperlinked TOC that takes you to the changed text). If we had output like I described in the previous paragraph, that would be doable--use an XSLT to insert HTML spans with styles showing deletions in red strikethrough and additions in green, or whatever.

Is there a way to make DiffDog create such a full report? If not, perhaps you would accept this as a feature suggestion for the next release.
