Building on what Michele says, Oxygen also provides various element/attribute
rename/unwrap/deletion refactoring actions that let you perform more advanced
actions that use XPath-like expressions (renaming attributes in certain
elements, unwrapping elements in certain parent elements, etc.).

Two of my favorite XSLT-related Oxygen features are:


  *   When running XSLT transformations, it preserves the input documentbs
serialization structure as much as possible.
     *   In a revision control context, this is useful for minimizing the
diff/blame footprint.
  *   You can preview an XSLT transformation on a set of files before applying
it, complete with a side-by-side diff of what would be applied.

Thatbs pretty basic functionality for an XML editor.  I canbt speak to the
other suggestions, but Oxygen for sure will do exactly that.  You select a
chunk of text and then just double-click on the element you want to wrap it
in.  You can also switch back and forth between XML-encoding mode and plain
text mode, which is handy if you need to search/replace element attribute.
For example you could search on <emph render=italic and replace with <emph
render=bold
