What I am afraid of is to become crippled by moving around too much, never mastering a single tool. I switch between different languages multiple times a week, but I guess if the features a certain editor/IDE adds are so great, they might add more than me knowing everything about it would.

IMHO the reason not to worry about being crippled by moving around too much is that this is about completing the task. In most cases they will add more, and to top it all off, if you learn a few key "most useful" shortcuts/features of the IDEs you end up using, then you strike what I call an acceptable middle ground.

Sometimes it is, on my job it is. At home it's more about having fun - seing the code compile/run, but just as much writing and reading the code.
