Can we have a utility to compare two catalogs and display the differences?

Roy,

You can do so now:

1) Put one catalog in a directory, the other in a different directory (this
is most likely already the case, so this can be skipped)
2) Create a database for each in the EDB Manager (this may also be
unnecessary)
3) Run the reverse-engineering, with the upgrade option, and you can
generate a set of generic SQL statements that detail the differences.

I'll make a suggestion note for a utility specifically for this purpose,
however.

Neat approach.
