It is possible in certain situations. If it is possible
to mark all block level elements, gather them into
a fo:block and set border-start-style="solid" or something.
If the marks have to match the lines exactly, or if you
have to generate a book where the marks have to be on
the outer side of the page, well, then it's impossible
with standard elements. You can try to implement extension
elements in FOP for starting/ending revision bars.

No idea.
