Some 10 years ago I was looking for a XML based layout format to use as 
exchange standard for newspaper ads between a web-based editor and other 
layout/workflow tools. I looked at Scribus - at that time a nearly undocumented 
mess. Maybe it’s better now.

(X)HTML is also (used, even if not planned as) view-based, not structurally 
meaningful, so you'd need a limited and defined "subset" of HTML to make 
meaningful TeX code from it - not very different from word processor usage. It 
*is* possible to use MS Word with proper styles and structure...
