Why not emacs?  The modern emacs (at least in graphical X mode) is pretty
easy to use.  And it's still incredibly powerful for those who want it.  It's
fine to use other editors too; but for those who haven't looked at emacs
for a decade, it's much nicer than you may remember.

Anyway, just to make sure there's an extreme data point in this survey, I
only use:

  emacs - all XHTML, CSS, P3P, etc.
  gimp - all graphics
  python - all CGI scripting

I do agree that's not for everyone though.
