Yes, definitely.  This goes for LaTeX too IMHO.

I have a Motif-based SGML editor at work called "adept" which works
somewhat like this.  I tried to make friends with it but simply
couldn't get comfortable with this abundant but awkward user
friendlyness and ended up using XEmacs-20.4 for the editing part and
adept as some kind of syntax checker and page formatter only.

                                YMMV, P. *8^)
