At the moment I'm thinking of doing a special full-screen page to list all
of media files where you can select every single file to view its revisions
or update it. It can be something like "Media Library" in Wordpress or list of
files in mediawiki. But I think we should have a popup for inserting files on
the page because it is very useful. There can be links to the "Media Library"
or be displayed it's mini-version.

I agree with that. Or we can do something like this selection of
the type of activity: http://www.redmine.org/projects/redmine/activity

Yes, it is quite easy to implement image diffs like at Github.
I think that comparison of the image metadata can be made similar to pages.
It can be a table with a columns for metadata of each file. Different rows
will be highlighted.
