Strange nobody mentioned Org-mode!
Also, this:
https://emacs.cafe/emacs/guest-post/2017/06/26/hierarchy.html (works
with JSON OOTB, but most probably could be used to edit XML).

Desktop declining??? That's terrifying, since 99% of web apps suck a lot!
> For visual editing an advanced rich text editor is a must. This one is really promising https://github.com/ianstormtaylor/slate as it can read/write custom scheme. Btw, it is used in https://github.com/GitbookIO/gitbook project. Mentioning Gitbook, it could also be a source of inspiration.
Again, Emacs (perhaps with Org-mode).
Best,
