Merge XML files

[MAF]

Is there a quick way to merge two XML files

example A
<TestNode>
<Data>123</Data>
</TestNode>

<TestNode>
<Data>123</Data>
<Data>222</Data>
<Data>333</Data>
</TestNode>
<Next Data>
"Hello World"
</Next Data>
Result would be
<TestNode>
<Data>222</Data>
<Data>333</Data>
</TestNode>
<Next Data>
"Hello World"
</Next Data>

That's not actually a merge... you're sort of "diffing" them :o) (I see you
removed the repeated node)
