Although it doesn't fit your description to a T, OpenOffice has fairly 
good formula editor, which one could use to edit with and watch the 
results in the document editor. (If the refresh rate of the document 
window is too slow, you can force it to refresh the formula your 
currently editing via the F5 key.)

As of 1.1.0, it's built into the "Writer" (name?) portion of the suite, 
and can be accessed by the menu bar at the top, under Insert --> Object 
--> Formula.
