Well then, would there be a case for it in the BRF editor which is being
developed?
A BRF would be opened with "Open" and XML could be imported, translation
being part of the import process.
It would be little effort to do this.
In the past I did nearly write a GUI for LibLouisUTDML due to the MSVC
build not compiling the tools and so there being a lack of tools when
building with MSVC. At that time I was using .NET a lot and so probably
would have used WPF for it. However that would be windows only.
As I now have mingw-w64 working on my Linux system, I have windows
builds with the command line tools and so I do not have the need now. I
am not certain whether I have the time to create such a tool at the moment.

One could make a good argument for something that does allow text editing after
the transformation of the XML. It wouldn't be the kind of tool we are trying to
create in BrailleBlaster but would rather be an editor similar to the
commercial transcription tools that are out there now - really a glorified
braille text editor.
I don't believe it would be all that difficult and would probably be very
useful to individuals and anyone who wasn't trying to meet the exacting
standards of professionally produced braille or the requirements of BANA.

Greg has already produced one for MacOS. That can provide a starting poin for a
Windows GUI. It would make full translation and formatting capabilities
available to ordinary users. Plus math and translation of both text and xml.
This would not be a replacement for BrailleBlaster. It would not have editing
capabilities.
Thanks,
