You can have all of that in Emacs and probably in vim as well.
See ctags/etags, cedet, ropemacs (refactoring Python), xrefactory (refactoring C and C++), wrangler (refactoring Erlang), etc.

People kludge them to fit all the time—look how older ctags implementations worked, after all—but it reminds me of a guy I who would write paragraphs so that each sentence had its own "line" and relied on implicit word wrap in LaTeX, HTML and the like to format it for human consumption. He did this so it would work better with tools like diff, patch, and version control in general. I thought "hey, worth a shot", tried it, and found it too clumsy for me during the writing process and abandoned it soon after.
git supports a --color-words option which is quite handy for text.

use auto fill and don't manually break lines :)
