Panorama and DynaText support change bars and I use them extensively to mark changes in the documents I'm creating. Change tracking and management is a particularly difficult problem in electronic publishing and something that all of my clients have asked for help with. Certainly within the technical publications arena, change bars are the norm for marking changed materials (ATA being a primary exception, probably because of historically having severely limited formatting tools to work with).
