Any decent text editor will have no trouble with it... So at least mention
which editor you use, and probably ask in a group/forum related to that
editor, as people are more likely to know the ins and outs of that
particular tool.

Right.

Indeed.
But the issue is very strange, if </noscript> is problematic and
<noscript> apparently isn't. I would bet on a user confusion.
Besides, the way to get around is to refrain from using the noscript
element. It's seldom useful. Mostly, a document that uses client-side
scripting should first be written and tested without scripting, and then
the scripting features would be added as extras with little or no need
for a separate noscript alternative.

Wouldn't you add a:
<NOSCRIPT>This page works better with JavaScript enabled</NOSCRIPT>
though, when this was the case?
As you well know, my scripting is pathetic, so I use it only for little
flourishes that marginally improve the page's usability, so such a
statement is almost always true on my pages.
Incidentally, I work in a closed environment where scripting is on by
definition, and only off by the deviants.
I recently saw someone suggesting to add some script that determined if
JavaScript was disabled. I'm still trying to figure this one out.

No. If someone has decided to disable JS, or is using a client which doesn't
support it, then constant reminders about it are going to be irritating.
