I am no expert but went through similar process myself. I do not think their is a 'best' editor, it really comes down to requirements and personal preference.
Most GUI's are aimed at window style interfaces, and although they offer varying levels of flexibility, you will always be limited to a 'windows' style. Some look very nice, some offer more features and some are aimed at speed. However, from my searchings I do not believe any of these will look 'awesome' in most game types.
Swifts GUI gives you some excellent functions to create your own GUI and is excellent for game HUD's etc. It can of course be used to create ANY gui, not just HUD's, but will take a lot of work to setup (compared to the 'window' style gui's).
Personaly, I use sswifts GUI (in game) and BlitzUI (for my 'never to be seen by the public' editors etc). Also, being a relative novice, I have found sswifts code an extremly useful teaching aid as it is extremly well documented.
Hmmm, not sure if that helps? But it feels good to add something to the community instead of seeming to be always taking (i.e. asking questions)!!
