afaict, there's no dedicated .sfz editor app that i know of yet. maybe 
there are.  you always have as last resort to edit one as plain text, 
taking care to obey to syntax and semantic rules (ok, sorry, this is 
just me thinking out loud, because i know this much about the .sfz spec:)

and yes, there's a linuxsampler mailing-list and also a forum. also 
#linuxsampler on irc.freenode.net . i believe most of your worries are 
best answered by the sfz engine's author(s) hanging out there ;)
