I think that LaTeX would be a good basis towards my dream of editors for arbitrary data structures, including deep, interactive structures that might have several different visualizations, or that might not even be visualizable all at once.
Can we somehow encode the "visual semantics" (plural) of these formats in such a way as to automatically generate WYSIWYG editors? How much can we automate the process of, given an arbitrary new structure, creating GUIs for editing it? I guess the question is "how much do different visualizations of different formats have in common?"
