You can have the best of both worlds (TeX and WYSIWYG) with LyX and possibly other editors that I didn't use much (Maple used to render to LaTeX 20 years ago and it worked kinda nice).

LyX prefers WYSIWYM (what you see is what you mean). The only way you can get anything approaching a layout view while typing is to carefully adjust the editor width, and even then line breaks will only be approximate (because hyphenation hasn't been computed) and there's no indication of pagination. I like LyX for straightforward documents, but it's not WYSIWYG, and it doesn't claim to be.
