What do you need that you don't get from, for example, the DOM + the SVG DOM for editing SVG? I've been encouraging anyone who will listen to me to define their own DTD/schema-specific DOMs on top of the DOM for domain-specific work; MathML, SVG and SMIL are all doing this, for example, and I see no reason why others shouldn't as well.
