How about relating this to a solution for tree addressing mentioned in comments in the DTD? As long as you can specify a walk down the tree to the element containing the start (and likewise the end), then just give offsets within it, it's pretty reliable (it's mildly interesting to characterize the precise classes of edits that do and do not invalidate such a locator, but I'll leave the exercise to the reader...).
