Perhaps a functionality of an otherwise excellent XML Editor,
OxygenXML[1] would suit you?
It's written in Java, but last time I checked I was a bit disappointed
by the limitation of extending through an API, again, they might be
enough for you. And I still use Oxygen every day, I just don't use the
API. It also integrates with Eclipse so that might be another route to
integrate.

Finally, from my experience at least, I would recommend using
Processing instructions to mark additions and deletions as they allow
a finer granularity, they also are used to track change in Oxygen and
Arbortext/PTC Epic so it seems a pretty popular way to go.
