Umm, I'd debate that, see below.

I read the question as scoring the changes so that minor ones had little 
value whereas important ones had a big score. Hence my thought about the 
pattern/word matching tool. It would pick every mismatch with a small 
context of the words around the mismatch and those differences can then 
be processed.
