Does the YUI CSS Grid Builder cover what you need?

Andy,

Daniel's answer is a good one for YUI CSS Grids. There is no wysiswyg editor that supports YUI widgets afaik, but this article might be of interest if you're a Dreamweaver CS4 user:

YUI's founder, Thomas Sha, did a lot of work to make YUI's widget's more accessible to Dreamweaver users.

Aptana has also done a lot of work to make sure that all the big JS kits are well supported. They have a good YUI plugin for 2.6.0 and are working on the 2.7.0 update:
