How often do you really click to cut and paste just an element name?”

 

Quite a lot.    Usually when searching.  It sets the term in the search box.

 

1 click to select a word is best practice in Notepad++ and with XML language selected, to highlight the element name and close for fast scanning of the tree in the text.


Well then, as others have pointed out, you need to use better tools. It's not something I know about because it's not a problem I've ever had, but if I did, I'd certainly blame my tools, not the vocabulary design.
