as it was commented below IntelliJ IDEA includes almost the same support (mostly the same) for other languages (PHP/Ruby/Python) as other IntelliJ-based IDEs. But at the same time IntelliJ IDEA never was positioned as a "true" polyglot IDE. IntelliJ IDEA is Java platform IDE, in the first place. It does support other technologies via plugins though, it might be much more convenient to use dedicated IDEs for other technologies.

we know about this request and understand it's importance. however it can't be done quickly as there are some things to change in the core of the editor. i hope to see it in 14 or even early nobody can tell in advance. will keep posted. i'm sure it will be implemented

Please contact sales@jetbrains.com. If you buy IntelliJ IDEA I hope sales can help you with getting WebStorm for free (or with a discount). Scala support is part of IntelliJ IDEA Community Edition (which is free), but IntelliJ IDEA Ultimate has additional nice features.

the python plugin for intellij adds similar level of code assistance (including django support) as pycharm. the only difference is in releases dates. intellij idea gets all new features with a small delay (and vice versa pycharm gets some new features with a small delay after intellij release).
