I spotted that, and tried it. Looks OK as a docbook/XML editor, but is
lacking as an end-user editor.

What we need is an editor that supports WYSIWYG editing of docbook
documents, outputs valid docbook, and displays according to attached
stylesheets. Basically OOo Writer or MS Word, but you can only select
the style (title, section etc) - not edit the style itself.

This will allow people to generate docbook documentation with worrying
about the inner workings, and that is how we will sell it.

Cheers,
