Actually, some commercial systems do have the ability to define generic
formats that can be changed in one place and have the entire document change;
NBI and Convergent Technologies systems come to mind.

It is a good idea, but it's not a point in favor of separate editors and
formatters; as you point out, systems of both kinds can have this feature.
