Well, I don't code with notepad but sometimes, when I get a simple syntax error and the context menu of the file is closer than the editor window (I have notepad in Send To), I just open the file in notepad and add " or ; or ) or whatever - it is sometimes faster than using a real editor.
Btw, I would use FP Express to write a simple long text with some really simple formatting - it is a bit faster than when you write the HTML stuff yourself. (Well, I don't do that sort of things myself and I pay attention to xhtml syntax, so my files are usually formatted by Tidy HTML, then reformatted by hand.)
Notepad is especially useful when you're working on a system where there is nothing else to code in. Example: at school, I have the choice between notepad, Turbo Pascal, "copy con file.html" and Word 2k.
It should be possible to write an editor in HTML/JScript that would be more comfortable than notepad ... why does MS still provide it without any development ("Ctrl+F added" is _not_ a new feature, it is a bugfix to make notepad accord at least a bit to MS's own standards)?

Have I missed a revolutionary new idea? How can line numbering be good/bad? If it's readable and mathematically correct, what more can there be?

Line numbering means error checking is easier.

I know, but what exactly is so good in Dreamweaver's line numbering as opposed to any other?

Its called brevity, but on an explanatory note I only use ultradev because thats what the company i work for gave me when i told them dreamweaver 3 didn't do what i wanted.
Sorry to have caused you any confusion.

I currently use TextPad 4.5 on Windows boxes, with the syntax file for php.
At the moment though, I'm considering looking at HTMLEdit to see if it can handle PHP as well: I know there are add-ons for Javascript and client-side coding; I don't know if they support server side code as well....

They almost always are. No regular(and good programmer) on the board I visit most, Gathering of Tweakers, uses notepad. They all use other editors, just because notepad is too limited.
But I was referring to what munkfish said:
