Hi David,
Yes. We are also using Source Code Control system.
Instead of comparing the versions in the history every
time. It would be very useful, if we highlight a block of
code and write some comments. It helps us in knowing the
changes by just having a look at the code in IDE. Im
thinking about something like the TrackChanges feature in
MS Word. Does this make sense or correct me if i have gone
wrong ?
regards,
Augustin

Augustin,
As Carel says, a feature like this is in the Whidbey preview.
However, having seen it, I'm wondering what practical use it is (most
people use their source code control system to check changes), so I'd
be interested to know what you think you can achieve with it.

I'm familiar with Word's track changes facility. The feature in
Whidbey won't do that for you. It only maintains its line change
identifiers while you keep the file open - unless MS change it
substantially in the future.
