    Description

      It would be nice to support visual diff of the rendered content of pages. Apparently some other tools already integrate this and XWiki could actually use existing libraries like this one https://github.com/nuxeo/daisydiff , which seems to be used by Nuxeo and Mediawiki (php5 port of it).

      I tried out the library on some content, and the results are quite nice as shown in the images I did of these diffs.
