Bring back the Data Source Wizard lost with the Test List Editor

Please can you bring back the Data Source Wizard which you lost when the Test List Editor was deleted from VS2012. Most of the People using Coded UI Testing are not developers and find having to hand code a datasource confusing at best and imposible at worst. Many have gone back to using rival functional testing products like test complete or qtp. Please make this a matter of priority.

Thank You

        The documentation of the parameters needed for the data source attributes is very poor. There are a couple of blogs with example strings, but no real details. The only MSDN documents I have found are written with programmers in mind, there are no guides written with testers in mind. Pressing the F1 key on the data source attribute brings up the programmers page which does not say how to use the attribute when writing tests. Bring back the data source wizard.

        Addition of the datasource wizard would make things easier for testers who may not know much about programming.
