Coded UI Test VS2012 RC

Show who checked out file in Solution Explorer
When a file is checked out and you mouseover it, it just says "Checked out by someone else or in another place".
Sometimes I want to know who has the file checked out to make sure that we don't both work on the same issue. I have to go to Team Explorer and find the file in order to find out who has checked out the file which is rather painful.

Is it possible that MS will provide Visual Studio running on Windows 8 On ARM?
It is amazing that programmer can code and debug on ARM devices(Pad or Laptop) with Visual Studio everywhere. Charge once, and use for weeks.3 votes -
Open the Start Page when you close a solution
It would be great if you could open the start page automatically when you close a solution/project, or at the least have an option to enable this behaviour.

Increase the number of transactions automatically added to the transaction response time graph
Currently when running a load test with over 50 transactions, the graph "Transaction Response Time" only adds the first 50 transactions. This creates issues when running large tests, since you would need to manually add the additional transactions manually.

add ability to use Data from Source code provider
It will be great to have ability to use data from solution source code (classes, enums, structs etc.) in Unit test instead of external or files data providers
Example:
struct UserData
{
string Login;
string Password;
}var UsersList = new List<UserData>
{
new UserData{"User1","password"},
new UserData{"User2","fdsfs"}
}[TestMethod(UsersList)]
public void MyTest(UserData user)
{
Asset.IsFalse(SomeAction(user));
}Alot of time this is more usefull and easy and quicker to use internal data sets instead of external
Also if add here ability to use list of Data Providers as described here http://visualstudio.uservoice.com/forums/121579-visual-studio/suggestions/2843165-add-ability-to-allow-using-list-of-data-providers

have an append copy to clipboard. It means that yo do not have to first paste the
copy append. so that when you want to add multiple items to the clipboard you can go up and down the page using a shortcut like ctrl d for example and instead of this clearing the clipboard it appends the highlighted item to the clipboard. Brilliant if you need to include classes in a style sheet or define multiple varables at the top of the page etc

Default Find and Replace from settings not last search
I am not sure if the Find and Replace options are the same in vs2010 and vs2012, but I find it quite annoying that vs2010 uses the same search settings as the last search. Most of the time, I search by current document. On the occassion that I need to search entire solution, I would prefer not to have to remember to change it back next time I do a quick search. Same with other settings for match case, whole word, etc... I think it would be a useful feature to be able to configure default settings for the search.

Support the ability to run load tests without a webtest
It would be useful to be able to use the loadtest functionality (counter monitoring mainly) with tests other than web tests. I currently have cheated around this by running a web test that just goes to a dummy service every 5 minutes and run my real test at the same time, but it is very much a kluge. Given that all the monitoring functionality already exists, it seems a waste to restrict it to web tests alone.

Deploy DLL libraries to GAC directly from Visual studio
I wish if new release of visual studio give the ability to deploy the libraries directly to Global Assembly Cache (GAC).It will be great instead of writing commands each time.

exception suggest plug in
I tool for visual Studio that suggests possible exceptions. Compared to Java the c# exception model has the plus of writing less code but it is nearly impossible to determine exceptions before they occur.
So it would be great to have a visual Studio plugin that suggests the possible exceptions in a try catch block. I think it should be technically possible to trace back method calls and find "throw" code. Would be a great Addition for safer code :)

VSTS Load Test : Get page response times for each browser type
In VSTS Load test results, Currently there is no such feature to see page response times for each browser type Separately. As we know, Server process the request based on user agent that we're simulating in the request (for example, different responses will be returned from gmail server for mobile and web requests).
There should be a feature to see response times for different browser types.

Open File In File Explorer
Add an option for "Open File In File Exploreer". There's already an option "Open Folder in File Explorer". Why is this not just a generic command for file or folder?
