Ah, I can reproduce this one. The hang happens when the helper is set to send the page text to the helper, but the helper won't read from stdin. So it seems to work ok with /usr/bin/xmllint --noout --valid %f and input set to none, %f being expanded to the filename, so that is a possible work around for now, but does require the document to be saved first. > - it would be nice to be able to select a span of text and then enclose > it within an element, selecting from a contextual menu of valid elements > (at the moment you can choose one, but nothing happens to the selected > text) or typing "<" (so to have a pop up list just as you do when typing > "<" in whatever unselected part of your text, only that when the text is > selected you'd get an opening tag at the beginning and a closing tag in > the end). should be a simple addition, this is already possible selecting a tag from the current doctype tag tree, or the insert menu. The only reason the valid elements one doesn't work is I've never got around to hooking that menu up properly.
