Jon, I personally don't agree that a WYSIWYG editor is a necessity for web development. Not at all. In fact, I think it is a crutch for many developers because they never learn a solid foundation and good HTML.
Designing complex table layouts is easy if you've been practicing and know HTML like the back of your hand. I've never met a table that I could not make my bitch. I hand code almost everything, and consequently have a very intimidate (no jokes please) relationship with the resulting code.
