Support for UML State Machine diagrams
VS2010 is missing support for UML State Machine Diagrams (also known as UML State Machines, or UML State Diagrams).
We are already using state machines to do code generation, but unfortunately the solution is not built inside VS2010. We even have to manually parse the state machine diagram "dsl" which is not fun. Would be a huge time saver if it was integrated.
To be honest it does not have to be "UML" but that is the best fit for what is already in VS. We need triggers, guards, entry/exit actions. Nested and orthogonal states would also be useful.

Yes and please extend the VS/.net code generator so that it can be used for network protocol implementations.
