svg vector-graphics inkscape

I'm looking for a plugin for inkscape (or any vector based editor for that matter) to see a window with the code next to the window with the graphical objects for SVGs. Both windows would be dynamic, meaning that if you change something in the graphical view it automatically updates the code, and changing the code would automatically update the graphical object. Also it would be nice if selecting an object would highlight the relevant code.

I have had a look here but didn't see anything like this: http://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php/Extension_repository

Does anything like this exist or would anyone else be interested in something like this?
