VEX in SLDT
Dave has dropped a post in his blog about the WTP Visual Editor for XML: VEX. By coincidence, the project SLDT known as eclipse4SL in Sourceforge, has also a VEX, which is used by eFace and eclipse4SL for XAML edition. This component is our donation to the Open Source community via eclipse4SL.
It seems that two projects start from the same concept and try to target the same problem. I believe we should put them together. In our VEX, we have developed following features:
- Multiple renderers support
- Instant Preview
- Template
- Palatte with template
Here is a screen shot of eclipse4SL:

Sorta similar. The Visual Editor for XML is mainly concerned with a WYSIWYG type of experience for editing XML files like DocBook, DITA, XHTML, Eclipse Project Plan, ePub, and other files targeted for print. The eclipse silverlight tools are targeting an entirely different medium, more from an interactive Web or Application design. I do think there can be some cross over though.

I agree with your quick analyze.
