Yes, a live edit feature just like Espresso for Mac has would be amazing. Although to be really useful and to bring a lot of developers over to Sublime Text 2 from other programs you would need to have support for live LESS and SASS.
I know many people are worried about slowing down the editor (Wow, it's current speed is amazing!!!), but you can remedy this by building this into a plugin, or something that you can disable to speed things up.
I know I won't be able to use this editor exclusively until it has this feature. Any thoughts fellow web devs and LESS/SASS gurus?
sublime has all of the things i had always wanted that BBEdit did not.
however... it's like a cruel joke -
1. i need a preview in browser command... multiple browser
2. and a live preview in sublime - refresh on save...
i mean... i can't understand why these options aren't the first 2 flourishes that would be added... did i miss the fine print ? is this editor just for python ? am i the only one who likes to see their site come together while coding css??? i feel like charley brown - and you have just pulled the football away from me. i seriously feel like i am going crazy. i am seriously upset.
quick note: check out plugins. Many for LiveReload, many for open in browser. check youtube for ways to write a command yourself. I am looking for something that actually gives a preview IN Sublime, but I don't think it exists. Need to open in the browser to keep up with latest browsers...
I second what sheriffderek said, CodeKit is excellent for this specially if you sue LESS/SASS. It will update your browser window on save and does it with a nice smooth animation to reflect the changes as opposed to a complete refresh fo the browser window.

I've been using codekit for live preview and preprocessing now. It does all the magic things. Sublime and codekit are a superforce of productivity!
