Well - the short answer is: if you want Windows use Windows.  Seriously! 
  There is no point in using something different if you don't want to 
accept a different philosophy in doing things.

One central thing is that Unix users tend to insist using the same 
editor for most editing tasks.

Your list of requirements can be split into two parts: 1) general editor 
features, most advanced editors offer these.  2) POV-Ray specific 
requirements, most general purpose editors won't offer those.  And for 
some (like a pause function) there isn't even support in POV-Ray.

That said a short list of editors:

the classics:

Emacs, Vi

others:

Kate, SciTE, Eclipse, jEdit, ...
