I find nxml-mode really good. It may take a little customizing to get
it to work exactly as you want or to add things like xml validation
etc, but I've found it all works really well. It supports tag
completion (and can use DTD to determine valid tags), will close off
open tags with a simple keystroke, has syntax highlighting and
appropriate indentation etc. A very nice mode for XML authoring. I've
used it as a basis for a very nice docbook authoring environment.
