It's still more experimental than really useful.
But there is a very good DocBook editor around, at
http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/ (Java, free for personal use)
It is as close to a WYSIWYG editor as possible.

Subject: DTDs: Teilite vs. Sdocbook
Message: 3F27D1AC.7000103@nc.rr.com
Referenced message follows:
| Jonathan,
|
| I can't speak strongly for the editing case between the two, nor much at all about Teilite which I know only by reputation.
|
| However, I will say this: every substantive XML editing system I've evaluated or worked with has had some sort of DocBook support. If they also had Teilite support, I was unaware of it.
|
| I've been considering loading Open Office. A Google search of openoffice and docbook gets a lot of feedback, about 16k hits; vis http://www.docbook.org/wiki/moin.cgi/OpenOffice
| The wiki at that link plainly says that the OpenOffice Docbook support has glitches.
| However, compare that to a similar search with openoffice and teilite: 17 hits
|
| Regards,
| Mitch
