You can canonicalize both subtrees and do an octet-wise comparison (using the Canonicalizers from the XML-Security project). But this includes that whitespace is significant, therefore a textual comparison. If you say that you want a "structural" comparison, there is no definition of what this is, so you have to invent your own metric for that.
