I'm late for a meeting so I just say couple of things.

This looks really good and sounds even better! I have invested a considerable amount of time in exploring visual XML document editing, including contentEditable, RelaxNG, web components, textarea input redirection (CodeMirror), especially for DocBook XML.

I'm curious have you thought about things like non-textual (for the writer) elements like widgets for dates, how to edit attributes, types in general (only numbers here).

In the comments here you mention douple enter to clone current block level (para) element. What about configurable behaviors or templates that insert XML fragments Emmet style? I have been looking at ways to declare editorial aspects (things that should happen with common editorial operations like douple enter, selection, copy/paste), perhaps using RelaxNG annotations or LESS style CSS extensions. New chapters, tables and links might come with considerable package which is not evident from the schema (nor could it be).

I try to take a close look later...

BTW: What license are you using? I did not find any mention in the Github repo.
