How does writing your site/project from scratch, (I presume that's what you mean when you suggest a text editor as a replacement for a CMS), result in "higher" security? I agree only a few percentage of the average CMS development care for half of it's security, but if they can't get it right, what makes you think you can? Besides, writing bad code with the excuse of an evangelic editor seems to me like the number one cause of leaving faults (seriously, does anyone believe that the writers of WP never used or heard about VIM?). That said, I'm comfortable with a high-level editor, where at the click of a button, I get full statistics reports on my program's performance, whereas the conventional asks for a couple of commands in the console. If you truly want to write something as much secure as it can be, forget the security hype and crap out there and get seriously knowledgeable on a target language. The use of the editor does no practical difference - I've been tasked to fix server code via windows cmd FTP and MS Notepad, big deal. Cheers.
