I have an xml-mode for emacs that I wrote way before xml
happened, it used to be called structext-mode.  It's not
nearly as clever as PSGML and runs on regexes so can be
fooled, but it has two things that are totally addictive: 

- type / and it puts in the right end-tag
- type C-C / and it puts in the right start-tag (assuming you're
  in a repeating pattern)
