Some quick musings on what I'd use for that system:
Python and some kind of backend database. For this, MySQL is probably more than enough, or even SQLite. (The latter ships with Mac OS X now, so that gives it a bit more "works where I want it to, out of the box" advantage to me.)
I need to think about how to set up the implementation for locked dates and then the "queue behind" behavior. I have some ideas, though.
As for real editors: I'd rather use ed than Notepad. I can get useful results with ed.
