I am just trying to think how that would work since most of the DTML Documents
which people would be editing are not true HTML docuemnts (as in they don't
usually include <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY>  and </BODY></HTML> etc)

So I am guessing most WYSIWYG would "automagically" provide these for you and 
in the process destroy any overall strucutre to your site.

I guess though for small sites it could be useful.

Cheers,
