You mentioned a "dream" ....
Have you looked at Yi? ....might be worth a peek if you're prepared
to work towards your dream.

...a long way to go - but it certainly nails #7!

Having dismissed Visual Haskell for being Windows-only, have you
considered EclipseFP? It doesn't tick all of your boxes, but maybe it
goes far enough in the right direction. AFAICT it fulfills 1, 2.3,
2.5
(but I'm not sure about this), 3, 6, and 7 (ish - plugins would be
written in Java).
There is also some experimentation under way to implement plugins
in Haskell: http://leiffrenzel.de/eclipse/cohatoe/ The Haskell code
is plugged into Eclipse via hs-plugins. However, the ultimate entry
point to the IDE is still Eclipse's, so there will be some Java/XML
boilerplate necessary for getting a plugin hooked.
Thanks && ciao,
