I find XML editor of Eclipse is very unproductive (new child or attribute must be inserted by context menu), and the text editor for XML is lack of hints. Are there any plugins or tricks that can make XML editing in Eclipse productively?
A:
Have a look at oXygen XML. It is IMO the most complete XML environment for Eclipse at the moment.

oXygen is cool, but I prefer a free plug-in.

If you are looking for the XML text editor to have auto-completion then your document needs to reference a schema (XSL). The schema will tell the editor what the correct tags are and where they can be used, and Eclipse should then offer you auto-completion.
