+1 for emacs. I use Emacs with Markdown mode and it does well. During
initial stage, emacs is very harder to ACCEPT when you have used other
editors.
It frustrates so much and it makes you to remember key strokes as like vi.
When you start emacs freshly, then you should not tend to customize the
emacs, instead use it as it is with .rst mode extension as suggested by
others. I replace the Search with Ctrl + F than Ctrl + S and mapped Ctrl + S
to save the file typical Windows style. Other than that it works very
normally. I would recommend to use the cua mode for Copy/Cut/Paste shortcuts
than using default emacs binding.. www.emacswiki.org/*CuaMode.*

For out of box software user with no specific interest in extending the
editor, use the Gedit or other editors which support ReST.*

Typical Emacs(VI?) users are married to Emacs(VI?), so either they fit into
emacs way(user mindset) or they make emacs to fit into their way(customize).
