Personally, I do all my css and js by hand, so the only thing I really care about is highlighting and formatting. However, this is a sentiment that's been echoed a couple of times during this thread, so I thought I'd sound off. Surely nobody on this list thinks that you should change the way you're doing ANYTHING so that your freakin' editor will work better, right??? I mean, I know all the great arguments behind separating code and presentation and I preach the same things, but IDE limitations are certainly not one of the reasons I'd ever give for it being a good idea.
Second off, I have several sites that run off of this set of core files I carry around with me. They handle skins in what I think is a fairly cool way. My CSS code is all in a template called css.cfm. It's basically a call to a cfc which determines the skin to be used and fetches all of the css settings (colors, fonts...) and then builds all of the css right there in a cfm file. In this way, I'm able to have one style sheet for each layout option, instead of having to have several for each option. Given three layouts, I've got three stylesheet templates instead of having a winter, spring, summer and fall stylesheet for each different layout. So I do have css files, they're just in cfm files and I'm most happy when my regular editor can handle that css code the way I want it to without having to mess with switching perspectives of anything like that.

One more reason to place all of your js and css outside of your XHTML template...
