The XAML editor in Visual Studio was broken for years. Blend, once you learn how to use it, is a much nicer tool.

In any case, unlike HTML you really don't want to be writing XAML by hand.

I write all my XAML by hand. Blend is a bit too cavalier for my liking, especially when building for Windows Phone.
