Visual editing of complex structures is hard to implement. For XML based publishing there is just single serious tool! https://www.oxygenxml.com/xml_author/docbook_editor_structured_editing.html Desktop is IMHO declining so I'd personally prefer a web app, which could be then packed even for desktop via https://electronjs.org/ While web frontend development was very fragmented in past, most developers nowadays prefer https://reactjs.org/ framework. For visual editing an advanced rich text editor is a must. This one is really promising https://github.com/ianstormtaylor/slate as it can read/write custom scheme. Btw, it is used in https://github.com/GitbookIO/gitbook project. Mentioning Gitbook, it could also be a source of inspiration.
