I don't know if this is taboo to everyone else, but I just use Quanta 
Plus (http://quanta.sourceforge.net).  Does just about everything you 
have mentioned.  I use it mostly for PHP development and it has worked 
great for me.  I just had to turn off the autocomplete functionality as 
it bogged down terribly on scripts with lots of classes and functions.

I have also used the Gnome-native Anjuta (http://anjuta.sourceforge.net) 
...It does a great job as well plus is more suited for C/C++ development.
