Composer, since it's very beginning was never intended to be the
all-powerful editor for the most savvy, web-design commercial type users
but rather a simple built-in editor for those users with simple personal
web pages, etc. that only need to create, maintain and update on an
"every now and then" basis.

If you want a more powerful and easy to use editor then install
Kompozer, http://kompozer.net/ which is based on NVU. NVU is the base
foundation for the Netscape built-in editor and AFAIK is also the basis
for SM's editor, not sure on that tho.
