My real requirement for tracking changes in XXE, as I mentioned before,
is to be able to use the DITA status attribute to drive output
formatting: to highlight differences in a new version of a publication,
I want to be able to say (for instance) "any content tagged with
status='new' is output in green". As far as I remember, this wasn't
possible out of the box last time I asked; I'd have to roll up my
sleeves and tussle with xslt.

built in in a future version of XXE?
In fact, you don't need to customize our DITA XSLT stylesheets for that.
This can be implemented by creating a simple .ditaval file and passing
it to XMLmind DITA Converter, the DITA processor embedded in XMLmind XML
Editor.
This process is explained here:
Flagging contents
http://www.xmlmind.com/ditac/_distrib/doc/manual/limitations.html#limitations__flagging_contents
When using XMLmind XML Editor, the .ditaval filter is passed to XMLmind
DITA Converter as explained here:
Conditional Processing Profile
http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/_distrib/doc/dita/help-2.html#map_menu
Note that the feature you need exists since several years. It's not a
feature added to XMLmind DITA Converter v2.5.6 (which has been released
today).
However, section "Flagging contents" is indeed new to XMLmind DITA
Converter v2.5.6 and was not found in our older documentation.
