Very interesting from a theoretical point.
Idea I:
Write a SAX handler in Java/Python/Perl that reads two
document versions in parallel and compares node for node.
Idea II:
Give _every_ versionable element an ID. Use the
xsl:document feature of XSLT-1.1 to look up the
corresponding node.
In both cases we have the problem of new elements,
split elements, joined elements, system entities ...
Then the problem of corrections in one translation only,
e.g. spelling, grammar, style, misinterpretations.
We really would need at least two version:
A semantic version, and a stylistic version.
