Answer 1

I'd like to suggest two enhancements. One would be a character in a status column to indicate changed entries. This would make in-page searches easier. Perhaps "+", "-" and "C" adjacent to the line number.

The second would be a collapsed view, that would show only the changes (along with the route, parameter and returns headers that they fall under).

Perhaps at soapi.info/Tools/Diff-summary.aspx.
