Of course it does. XML is a ``plain text'' file format (for varying
definitions of "plain text." Personally, if it is not ASCII, it is not
plain text.)

Vi also allows you to edit any part of the file to include anything you
wish, or modify any portion. Emacs certainly does that, no? So Emacs can
break an XML file just as well as vi can, can't it?

Or are you asking about integrated parsers and verifiers? They already
make those, no need to try to recreate that in an editor.
