Even mcedit shows matching braces, that's not tree editing :) That would be editor showing a formula in graphic form and allowing you to jump around on it and add/move around nested parts of it with shortcuts.

The show matching braces thing is not essential. But, barring the visual formula, %-navigation through braces is tree navigation.

But if you have serialized code tree navigation isn't needed, the whole point was to make it graphical.
