This is my impression, from trying to use it as well. I was troubled by
'yet another embedded text system' that necessitated editing source,
which seemed like a stone-age throwback when I abandoned such systems in
the mid 1980s (Scribe, nroff, etc. at the time).

While I appreciate that, in theory:

        1. there are WYSIWYG XML editors that *can* be loaded with DTDs
        2. Word et al. are moving to XML

Bill Fenner has made a plugin available for the XMLMind XML Editor that gives you a lot of assistance in writing XML2RFC documents.

I haven't used it for "production" yet, but it looks wonderful - not WYSIWYG, but WYSIPU - What You See Is Pretty Useful.
