Unfortunately, there isn't any good CF editor out there. Now that HomeSite is 
defunct, we're pretty much all screwed.

Dreamweaver is evil. It crashes often and is slow to open and sometimes won't 
open a drive's contents after you choose it from the dropdown, but at least it 
opens. It's probably worth mentioning that it's criminally expensive.

CF Eclipse has lots of nice features, and if it didn't use over 400MB of RAM + 
VM (not an exaggeration), I think it might even be considered usable. 
Unfortunately, the massive Java bloat, that would be funny if it werent so sad, 
makes the editor responsive/usable only to those who have 2GB+ of RAM (unless 
you want to run your own CF Dev instance on the box in which case I'd go for 
3GB+) which can obviously get prohibitively expensive if you have more than 1 
or 2 developers using it.

I guess only the super rich can develop for CF at this point.

I've been hoping for a Visual Studio extension that provides code hinting for 
CFMX8. MS gives Visual Studio Express away free and it is fast and uses a 
(relatively) modest 40MB of RAM.

I guess I'll keep hoping.
