No, Dreamweaver works great for PHP code editing and writing. It supports an extension that enables you to add the entire php.net documentation and user notes to it, which really helps if you are wondering what a specific PHP integrated function does.
BUT, you should enter 'Preferences' from the 'Edit' menu, and under the 'Code Rewriting' section, either turn Code Rewriting OFF, or check the 'Never rewrite code: In files with extensions' and put .php and .php3 in the input field."

I'm going to leave it in the not recommended section, simply because I don't recommend it and as I've mentioned, I'm only recommending plain-text editors as they are 99.99% guranteed to work for anyone when it comes to editing vBulletin files.

I may however, add the section about Dreamweaver that you suggested at a later date..
