A help - one that understands XML and DTDs, and can at least suggest to you 
what a legal tag is in a given context - is the XML tools plugin for kate. 
Since Bram already has KDE on his system, kate is there too. It's not exactly 
compatible with vim, though (although kvim exists too, and I believe work is 
underway to make it a KTextEditor implementation, so that you can plug it 
into the kate shell as well). The plugin, unfortunately, is in kdeaddons - I 
don't think there's a port for that, though. I can provide a tarball if 
needed.

From other docbook folks: "jedit is worth a try, if you're editor agnostic, I 
was quite impressed with it, it's got lots of lookup and autocomplete stuff, 
but a bit tricky to get it working with the right DTD's."

And that said, this thread is heading towards bikeshed territory, and I'm 
going on vacation (with a book on Python programming in my suitcase, so I can 
learn how to fix AAP bugs in future).
