I think that a source text view in a modern XML editor is a step backwards. A true XML editor operates on an internal representation of the XML document (probably based on DOM), so the external text representation is deconstructed at 'open' time and reconstructed at 'save' time. If, for some weird reason, you really need a read-only source text view, you could do-it-yourself by writing/adapting a macro that saves a copy of the xml file and opens it in a text editor.
