Arthur,
although I understand the desire for this, unless there is a tool that can
generate this automatically I don't think we can reasonably ask the
edtior(s) to markup all the changes in such a way. This is just too much
of a pain.

2) Arthur, you stated you wanted change bars on the sides. Do you have an
example of this (in HTML) and does anyone know how to do such thing in
respec? Meanwhile I have added a link to the detailed version history in
github to the "Revision History" section after the Abstract.
Thanks for adding the Revision History section.
HTML has tags <ins> and <del> to markup inserted and deleted text [1],
e.g.
<p>My favorite color is <del>blue</del> <ins>red</ins>!</p>
I know't know what this looks like in respect, but we can modify the CSS
to improve the appearance if necessary.
The key thing is that we need a simple way to see the delta from version
to version. Change bars in the margin would be fine, but as long as the
inserted/modifed and deleted text is clearly visible, then reviewers
won't have to reread the entire spec.
