Incorporate double-click code tab to bring it full screen and double click to restore back like Eclipse IDE. I am glad you stopped popping it into a new window but would like to easily double click to go full screen with the code window and be able to return without having to unpin and re-pin everything.

Instead of the tool windows "Find Results 1" and "Find Results 2", I'd find a search like Notepad++ much more usefull: just keep track of past searches behind an expandable [+]

In VS 2008 and earlier, the Intellisense dropdown was resizable so that you could see more suggested members. As of 2010, this was no longer possible, and in VS 11 beta, it is really small so that you cannot see a lot. Please make this possible again!

This feature is hyper annoying.

I find a lot of the time my windows don't save like I like them to. Or they change and then I need to re-set them up.

Sometimes I want certain windows while I'm debugging and other ones when coding or unit testing.

I would like to setup different layouts for my windows and be able to save them indepently of each other. And then be able to switch to them with a keyboard shortcut.

The "Recent Projects" lists shows both projects and solutions. I prefer to only have solutions listed there. An option to filter out projects would be good. Of course, then the name "Recent Projects" is inconsistent. Therefore another possibility would be to provide an option to use either a "Recent Projects" or "Recent Solutions" list.

Add MS Office support into Visual Studio to create, edit documents saved in TFS. Would be helpful to review or edit specification documents from TFS itself.

To close a solution, you have to go to File -> Close Solution. I do most of my work in the Solution Explorer already, so being able to close the solution on the context menu when right-clicking on the solution file within the Solution Explorer would be nice.

Allowing 'soft references' to be defined against a project could ease the use of injected dependencies. This could facilitate the benefits of IoC whilst supporting much of the convenience of 'hard' references.

Every time we add new project to the Solution, VS is including new project for build in all active solution configurations. After that, we have to uncheck that project for most active configurations because we don't want to build it. Can you provide option:

"Do not include new projects in build for active solution configurations "

When changing code Eclipse shows where errors or warnings occur in the project explorer with an Icon. Please implement this in the Solution Explorer of visual studio as well.

It would be a great idea to have a search box in Properties Window for other types of projects, just like the search in Properties Window in WPF projects. It would increase the productivity of the developers and of course the search box should have a short cut key just like the solution explorer search box has one.

Basically, have the ability to point to a folder and specify a few file types (*.cpp, *.h, *hpp) and they get imported in Solution Explorer for the project.

I like the white theme in general, but I find it difficult to distinguish what type of file/TFS Status something is when they all look the same. If you kept to the minimalistic approach, that would be fine. Just some more contrast would be amazing.

In the Solution Explorer, I like the new "Scope to This" feature.

Could this be expanded to scope to a subset of projects as opposed to just one? It would make working in large solutions much easier.
