I think the idea is brilliant,

so probably no one is using it.
Those who could use such a function are parallel corpus linguists.
"Opus" is a project that collects open-source parallel corpora,

In the Czech Republic, the project InterCorp also does similar work,
and they developed their own "InterText" editor software for the
alignment, a paragraph and a sentence at a time,

The screenshot gives you an idea of their user interface,

But that user interface could be "DoubleWiki" if you incorporate
some ideas from Mediawiki's visual editor...
Now, do we have any corpus linguists who use Wikisource?
I think we need to have the input from the actual users.
