My original plan was just to allow export. If you want to view the document as-is (i.e. without transforming it further, as the XSLT sheets would do, for instance by generating HTML or PDF files), you would have to resort to XML editors with WYSIWYM support (XMLmind, Oxygen, XMetaL, all of which are commercial -- I don't know any other that's still actively developed), that's not software you'd expect to find broadly.
