These nodes are specifically cleaned BEFORE the diff runs so that they do not
affect the diff process.

However daisydiff only detects VISIBLE html changes. Even if you had a way to
detect Javascript or Meta changes how are you supposed to show them to the user?
Especially Meta tags are non-visible by definition.
If you are interested in HTML as structure only then use XMLunit or another
library mentioned in https://code.google.com/p/daisydiff/wiki/Software
You also try to remove the cleaner xsl so that this nodes take part in the diff
process. But I am not sure if that helps in any way.
