There's font support in the recent update, and it has always been possible to embed XNA into a form, that aspect of creating a level editor should be easy enough.

With what jpetrie has said, I'd think that making a level editor would be that much easier.

I'd say give XNA another shot, or at least take another look at it.

I think XNA would be the best option if you are concerned about level editors. Since it is base on .Net you can use forms with it. From my experiences .Net forms are easy and powerful to use so your editor would be that much easier to make.

Just use XNA 2.0, its great for what you are trying to do.

Yup that's what it was designed for.
What more could you ask/be looking for?
