We are in a world where computational and networking resources are absurdly cheap and abundant, compared to the past. Why shouldn't we design languages and environments that take advantage of this fact? Designing a language that leans on an IDE, or other forms of tool support, is not bad. Analogously, designing an application that leans on having an internet connection (e.g. put documentation in a wiki, Go's URL imports) is not bad. You can put together a GUI using only textual code in a text editor, but you'll do it faster and better with the help of live previewing and typo underlining.
