The only XML editor I've found in Eclipse is the
XMLMultiPageEditorPart which is internal to WST. To use this editor in
your application you would have to include large parts (or all) of WST
and use a Part which is not API, i.e. may change without notice.

If you will do this or find another plug-in which implements an XML
editor (search http://www.eclipseplugincentral.com/) you may open this
editor using its ID and an IEditorInput implementation to open this
editor using IWorkbenchPage.openEditor(IEditorInput input, String id).
