I've used an XML editing plugin for Eclipse before and I thoroughly
enjoyed it (this is coming from someone who dislikes both Eclipse and
almost all other help-you-beneath-the-hood editors).  It was very
close to XML Spy from my experience.  Offhand I don't remember which
editor it was, but it was in the list of standard addons, I think from
the web development packages.
