I would agree with Matt.
It's a matter of style... I think if you made a 1-1 POD and XML tagset, it
wouldn't be too many tags.
The thing that makes POD easier to diff is that the commands appear on
single lines... but if you do something like
<code>
Some code
</code>
I don't think that it would be so hard to read a diff.
However, with that said, I think more Perl people are familiar with a
simple POD.
Did I just go round a circle? Whoops.
