Well, I'd have a whole host of suggestions for a UI - such as: - An editor with a tree view of the document docked into it, so that you can select a subelement and only see the text of that subelement (filtering out trivial tags like <para> but exposing document sections like section or chapter, etc. - Ability to define a subset of the dtd available for code completion (docbook is huge and contains tons of tags only useful if you're writing a particular type of document) - Integration with Apache FOP or the Docbook XSLT stuff so that you can "compile" an html or pdf build of the book (Jesse already did this - see the build tasks he wrote if you still have a checkout of the ftp copy of the book sources) - A UI for defining that subset - Some kind of floating palette allowing you to quickly wrap a section of text in some kind of tags And, well, I can think of lots more things, but this is probably already more than you wanted to hear! -Tim
There is an elementary DocBook support module in contrib.
