CSS and HTML coding is pretty pointless to focus on. The only reason it's even expected from a designer is because there are no serious WYSIWIG editors now. But Flash Catalyst could be one for Flash, and there will be some others for JS/HTML5/CSS along the lines of Google Web Toolkit.
Most of the coding designers need can be handled by applications. Most coders spend their time handling transition animations, browser inconsistencies, standards compliance, and other trite shit.
I think that will be over in a few years, and they'll have to find projects along the lines of Google Wave or Digg Stream that improve some fundamental UI problem that designers can't just fix up visually.
