Certainly. 'vi' is very simple. ;-)
Some say EMACS Makes All Computing Simple, but ISTM the opposite.
Chacon a son gout. [Each to his own brand of goo.] [With apologies to
true Francophones - that was meant as a joke.]
There is also a Web tool called 'webmin', cf. www.webmin.com/webmin/.

Well, can you advance any arguments FOR doing this? Adding complexity
just for complexity's sake is a BAD thing.
OTOH, you are perfectly welcome to define an XML format, write a Web
tool with which to manipulate it, and write another tool to convert it
from the "eXtra-special Milan Leszkow" [XML] format to the real format.
;-) Especially if it handles ALL cases.
