The best category of software to use for examples is that of "WYSIWYG"
XML editors. These generally try to get users to specify semantics while
simultaneously showing them the presentational result of those semantics
and constraining them to some kind of schema.
For example:
http://xopus.com/
http://www.syntext.com/products/serna/
http://bitfluxeditor.org/
Whether they have been a successes or failures I'll leave for others to
decide.
