You can also represent a syntactic tree simply as offsets with tag (assuming a 
constituent structure tree without overlaps), if the hierarchy is implicit in 
the offset span. Potential matching offsets have to be handled by other rules 
(e.g. what cat/tag dominates what other can be handled independently in 
subsequent components, or a final visualization). Maybe a look at the stand-off 
annotation approaches in for example TEI XML would help.
