I would look for an editor with scripting capabilities in which case
sending the selection/current line to a terminal and running latex on
the current file are really easy. Then if you want special features
such as snippets, auto-completion and all you should probably keep a
dedicated editor.
I am using TextMate on OS X currently and find it very powerful in
combination with a plain old terminal[1]. An "equivalent" of TextMate
on Linux could be Scribes:
http://scribes.sourceforge.net/
I don't know wether it has some functions designed explicitly for R
or LaTeX but it is extensible and chances are that people already
wrote scripts for you to use.
I would be interested in knowing what you find, since I essentially
have the same needs and stayed on OS X in great part because of
TextMate. I would be happy to find a linux replacement and ditch my
half-bitten apple for a penguin.
