Currently when creating new console or windows executable project it defaults to x86 target platform. I think IDE should not restrict people from using AnyCPU mode, so option to choose default target platform when creating new project would be great.

The Version column on the "Choose Toolbox Items" dialog sorts on a standard lexical sort. It would be good if it split the version information and sorted on each portion intelligently.

when I hover over css class in my aspx/html file, show the details of that css

In 2012 it was possible to search in Project-Ressources. Missing that in 2012

This will allow for side by side comparison/referencing... less eye movement left to right than up down.

Provide copy to copy ALL open file paths when right-clicking on an open file's tab

The CheckIn-button and Comment-TextBox should not be part of the scrollable area of the PendingChanges-View.

Often i type my comment in the TextBox to filter the Included Changes until i realize that i have to scroll up to enter my comment in the TextBox for Comments.

I work on 2 monitors at work and a single monitor remotely (same PC). It would be nice to be able to switch between my 2 monitor layout and 1 monitor layout by selecting layouts I have preconfigured and saved.

Also useful to have developing and debugging layouts. So when I enter into debug mode it uses a certain preconfigured layout.

Attached is an image from another development environment that has this feature. Anders might remember it :)

"Navigate to" is one of the best new features of vs 2010.

Would be nice that we could change the "scope" of the search to the currently edited source file only OR group the search results like: first the results of the current source file, than the current project and finally for the entire solution.

It would be very useful to cross reference Microsoft Connect bugs with class names/API/etc in the IDE. You could possibly visually indicate it with a colored squiggle line with a mouse-over tooltip stating there was an issue. There could be a new tab in the Error List indicating the known issues with links direct to Microsoft Connect and known workarounds.

I just encountered a known issue in .NET 4.0 involving merged resource dictionaries that took me a few days to track down. It would be excellent to be able to go through a list of known issues first.

Just like the option to find within the current block, finding in the current class would be very helpful when writing multiple-class DLL's in the same document.

When creating a new solution I typically have to add the same half-dozen standard projects which contain common code. It would be great to be able to template/script this into an automated operation when a new solution is created.

Comments can be edited in Properties window and can be shown as tooltips.

I very much like the list on the right, and that a simple click takes you right to the GUI, code block, etc. you select. I also like the addition of the code under the GUI. However, when you select a code block this way, you don't go to the last place you were in the code, as happens when you go there by selecting a tab. It would be much more convienient to go to the last place you were in the block.

VS.NET and Eclipse support is good, but NetBeans is also a major player in the IDE space - we use it for PHP development for example. Would be great to add direct support for the NetBeans IDE as well.
