Maybe simply the list of the expected values, in a pre-defined order, with an empty spot if the value is not present? See attached example. (I have not verified the actual results, but the format should illustrate the idea)

We should probably escape the line breaks to "\n" (and any tab to "\t") and escape any XML constructs. For example if a localization note is:

<elem>text  with<tag/>
And line-breaks</elem>

We would output:

its:locNote="text  with&lt;tag/>\nAnd line-breaks"
