add "Sign in as a different user" option.
I have two Live ID's and it would help to have an option to sign in as a different user. It is a significant pain to switch between Live ID's.

Remove reigsration demands
Remove the registration demands when I want to submit a bug. I've found a bug in MSVC2010 and want to submit it, but I don't want to register in your MSN or hotmail or whatever.. It's not convenient. Just do a form like this and leave it for people like me.

In-Text Display Q1 Opportunities
Hello,
My name is Jake Bakker with InTopic Media. I hope 2012 is treating you well so far. We have some new revenue streams and product offerings for silverlight.net
Over the next few weeks we are looking to create some solid in-text advertisement partnerships, to ensure we meet our upcoming demand. Through our contextual ads and MicroBanners, we can simply provide you with a java script tag to create an additional stream of your revenue.
Please let me know some times for us to connect this week on these opportunities and get the approval process going.
Thanks,
Jake Bakker

Auto Collapse Javascript Structure (Collapse To Definitions)

Provide version control support for Team Process artifacts, such as areas/iterations, global lists, and WITs
TFS should support the provide version control support for artifacts of the active team process, such as areas/iterations, global lists, and work item type definitions. There is currently no way to view or roll back changes to these artifacts without using a manual process to export, checkin to a (manually created) version control path, edit the "offline" artifact, checkin changes, and the upload the changes. This should be natively supported, and should be transactional/atomic.

New Project "Location" field should tab-complete path names
In the VS11 beta:
When creating a New Project, please pay close attention to making the screen as keyboard-friendly as possible. In particular, entering a path in the "location" field should support tab-completion of path names, like in the console.

Expose 'break on READ' breakpoints
These are available via x86 debug registers. I suspect these were never exposed out of wanting to conform to Alpha, or other legacy architectures.
It would be *very* useful during debugging to be able to say where is a value used, and not just set.2 votes -
Provide information about why a project needs to be converted
When loading a VS2010 solution in VS11 beta it displays a dialog (in some cases) saying that a project needs to be upgraded and that you can choose not to load the project. But it doesn't provide any information as to why the project needs to be modified. Therefore you have no context to determine whether you should or shouldn't upgrade the project.

Allow you to create coding automation scripts
Developers do many repetitive tasks so if visual studio let you record a common task, then let you modify parts of it by adding wild cards or extra coded steps then save it for later use it would save lots of time. Then a developer can highlite text and apply the task. Then VS would run it on the selected text applying the rule .

Double clicking on a window no longer takes you to the Loaded event handler in WPF projects
In previous versions of Visual Studio double clicking on the window border or anywhere outside of the window in the designer would generate and take you to the Window's Loaded event handler. This no longer happens in VS 11 and is very annoying when there seems to be no reason for this to be changed.

Make it clear that Secure FTP is an option
From the "Open Web Site" please make it clear that Secure FTP is available. I did several searches on the web looking for another way to move files until I learned that Secure FTP will work. Many of the articles on the web talk about how only regular FTP is possible.
