We may be saying the same thing, I would only recommend the word
processor for the development of the 'copy' and not the 'markup'. The
markup (HTML) is not very complicated on the whole, especially if one
restricts it to the semantic structure and styles with CSS. The text
editor is what I recommend for the markup. I have not been impressed by
any conversion filter or WYSIWYG editor, some a notably better than
others but IMO not nearly as good as by hand.
