Improve IntelliSense support for F#
F# is seriously lacking Intellisense support in VS2010. it would be very nice if it had the same support as C#. The currently available code completion features really make VS feel like notepad.
We have implemented a number of improvements to F# IntelliSense in Visual Studio 11. Many of them are already available in the Visual Studio 11 Developer Preview.

@Robert/Daniel I think I'd rather be able to F12 on definitions not part of my code base and bring me a view to the type signature of the library like in C#.

We have made improvements here in the VS11 preview, we'd be really grateful if you road tested this and sent lots of feedback

Seems like it's much better in the VS11 Preview.

@Daniel Yes! That is absolutely the worst part of F# intellisense

Along these lines, including parameter names when hovering over functions (e.g., arg1:int -> arg2:int -> int) would be very helpful, especially for partially applied functions.
