The hinting (in some form) is planned for the future.  In the meantime, 
perhaps read this blog post I just published, which might encourage you 
to forget what you thought were cool features, and embrace TextMate's 
endless customisation and innovation through snippets and macros.

It's a bit of a rant, but please remember that I've been using TM about 
14 hrs a day for over a week now.  I feel I've got a bit of a head 
start and "get it", and can't help but try to show other people "the
