That's why I like Henry Thompson's XED: a structured editing tool with a
text editor GUI.

We aren't all of one mind around here.  Me, I like presentations with
lots of bullets, the kind where you can almost reconstruct the presentation
just reading the slides.  And that's the kind I give, too.  There's even
a slide at the beginning explaining that it's all B&W text because it's
a lot easier on middle-aged eyes such as mine.
