While there are things in TextMate that drive me crazy too (having to  
create a project window to group windows together, and its Go To  
Header/Source functionality is a bit wrong), consider that if  
TextMate we really bad then nobody would use it. B*tch'n at the  
developer and wanting to send him to jail is a great way to get your  
ideas implemented (although as the target of things like that before  
it has motivated me on occasion out of anger.)

Please go back to using Emacs, as I suspect you'd hate BBEdit even  
more than you do TextMate.

Godspeed,
