Bluefish has tab autocompletion for tags ... type "<" to open a tag and you 
can choose from the dropdown.

KDE3 had Quanta Plus, but I don't think it was ever ported to KDE4.

Kate offers autocompletion in CSS at least, once you start typing the tag.  
You can have a browser open to check the results of your edits as an WYSIWYG 
solution.

Otherwise, you may want to try Komodo-edit-bin:

(I've just added an ebuild for the latest 8.0.0 version.)
