Vim and Emacs have had decades to get to that point. ST is a comparative baby. I'd love to see a modern editor that isn't designed around a terminal join those ranks.

Pretty hard to "get to that point" when your editor isn't programmable.

Which goes back to my original point.

Seen lots of IDEs and editors come and go. Nothing new here, just more polish than the last guy.

There is Acme for Plan9 [1] and it has inspired a few other editors. I don't use them myself because they don't have syntax highlighting.

That looks awesome. Having used the WMII window manager it looks quite familiar. Even then the learning curve seems steep.
