Hi Paul I think you'll find the majority of developers hand code html via a texteditor. Since VS's primary function is a text editor it's been able to do html5 before html5 existed.
Many companies try to create WYSIWYG editors but they never work well enough so they die. The best tool to help you get started at nice html5 UI would be bootstrappers, like html5boilerplate or twitter bootstraps.
