Just as a quick alternate suggestion, you could hand the client an XML editor rather than just a text editor. That way they won't be able to forget to close a tag.
Internally, we use XML Notepad, which is free and supports XML schemas (so can even syntax-check what your client is doing). It's by Microsoft. It's probably the only Microsoft thing I'll ever recommend to anyone. Fairly obviously Windows only, sadly.
