I am looking for a WYSIWYG for XPS that will ouput the raw XAML.

My intentions is use the tool for a way to quickly generate and test the XAML (of XPS documents) with the intention of then generating the same xaml in code and programmatically generating an XPS document. The same approach that many people use for generating html.

Can anyone recommend any of the below products or suggest any others? Better yet does anyone know of a free XPS editor?

NiXPS Edit $300USD http://www.nixps.com/nixps_edit_20.html
XamlPad is free but also quite limited and does not really target XPS.
Office System Power Tools is not WYSIWYG http://blogs.msdn.com/adrianford/archive/2008/07/03/visual-studio-and-xps-files.aspx
XPS eXaminer 1.0 $399USD http://storefront.qualitylogic.com/p-16-qualitylogic-xps-examiner.aspx
