What I have settled on is saving a stack as a text file series of xtalk 
commands for recreating it:

create button
set the name of it to "btnCancel"
etc...

Then I archive the previous version as only the properties that have 
changed:

set the name of button "btnCancel" to "button"

That way I can recreate a stack quickly without having to traverse a chain 
of changed properties and not have to worry about the integrity of the 
archive.

...and voila! instant diffs.
