For advanced users, you could easily do a search and paste over the whole file or files and work a lot faster while still seeing the result of your work in real time.
Hell if you want to able to see exactly what each and every keystroke or action you perform does, that's easy. WYSIWYG editor with a side pane code view that updates the code with each action in the main view pane. That's already in my design document, only the panes are horizontal.

But you should be able to turn off the code view and work in design view exclusively. I don't need to see all of the text duplicated on the screen all of the time.
