funny.  no desire.  well, maybe for complex tables or similar kink.

but when i am writing prose, i am focused on the wording, happy that
emacs sprinkles the <t> et alia, and i clean it up later.  it's
sufficiently hard to get clear and concise text, that i focus on it.

in the hope it makes rfced's life a micro easier, i do put in time later
to make pretty xml; probably much more than i should.  i doubt a wysiwyg
display would help.  the major issue in prettification is bracketing;
and emacs rulz.
