nano is the perfect editor for people who only use editors in the terminal, once in a while to edit a config file.
I don't think it's the perfect editor for anything. They'll have to use vi sooner or later, they might as well learn the basics. Or just use kate.
Use Kate in command line over ssh?
Ssh - X
Then run kate, easy :)
