That's what I use (vim). Although my front ends are Java code and not HTML/CSS.
Hand-coding takes longer but in my experience results in a better product and also in my opinion makes you a better programmer. With that said I partnered on a project with a guy who did the HTML front end and he got good results with Dreamweaver. I then used vim to insert the tag work, scriptlets, etc., into his files.
