Another option is that the RFC Editor should be more careful. It really isn't that hard for the RFC Editor to run xml2rfc on the XML file and wdiff it against the draft that is approved by the IESG, and bring noticeable differences to the two parties.
agreed. at the risk of stating the obvious: the problem is identical to the one where the authors submit nroff source to the rfc-editor.
it's always a good idea to run the toolchain, and then diff the text against the I-D approved by the IESG. if there's a difference, the relevant ADs and authors need to get on the same page.
