If it looks like a word processor, it should act like a word processor. Why should ePub creation be limited to only those nerds who have wizard-like techy skills? Most nerds can't write and most writers aren't nerds. If what you propose as a purpose for Sigil is correct, it is made for a very small market. We need to make these tools to simplify life for real people, not so that they are used only by people who don't need them and can work with code directly.
