Add the ability to restart all agents in a test rig from Lab Manager
Add the capability to restart all of the agents in a lab from test manager. This functionality current exists in Visual Studio. This functionality would come in handy in situations where a previous test run fails and the agents get stuck in "limbo" and are not able to run subsequent tests. In labs comprised of a large number of machines manually restarting all of your agents can be very time-consuming.

Caller Info attribute [CallerMemberNamespace]
Just have seen the "Future Directions for C#" video.
The Caller Info attributes
[CallerFilePaht]
[CallerLineNumer]
[CallerMemberName]are very helpful, but missing the
[CallerMemberNamespace]
attribute.

curly-brace formatting
the formatting options for the various "C"-like languages should be more closely aligned.
please make the indentation/spacing/new-line options for C++ & Javascript more powerful - similar to what's available for C#.

Ensure that all data entered is present in the Description View. I sometimes have to put a Return in manually.
Sometimes, when I paste a description into the description field, not all of the information shows in the description box. I have to go in and put Returns in manually.

Divide write access to different levels like checkin/checkout files, add/delete files,folders.
Hi,
It would be nice to seperate write access to different levels to
- Checkin/Check out of files
- Add / Delete Files and Folders.We have some projects where we don't want to give access to add / delete files and folders to developers. Please review it and it to your future releases.
Thanks,

Customize the display name of test methods
Customize the name of test methods so they appear in Test View and Test Result windows with the customize name because, we don't want to name the method good name and we don't want to break the code rules of naming the methods and it also become not readable at all

Screenshot function support for Windows Phone in ACTUAL device
Why Windows Phone only support screenshot funtion in emulator only?? That's really odd. When user wants to report a bugs to developer and wanna show actual screen shot, do they have to being a camera and take actual photo?? It would be really good when they have a screen shot function, so when user has noticed there is bugs, make them report to developers directly via outlook app in windows phone

Remove unused resources automatically
It would be very helpful if there could be a new item "remove unused resources". Maybe with a little list of unused resources, in a separate window and a customizable option "show unused resources as "warning/error/ignore".

Simpler access to view and modify the persisted workflow instance data
Despite our best efforts and preventative measures, sometimes the only thing to be done is get in and fiddle the data. If we change a complex type that happens to have been used in a workflow in such a way that breaks deserialization, a workflow might not find out until some time after deployment. At this point it is too late to back out as other workflows etc have been created on the new type structure.
I have only managed to figure out a way to view the data in the persistence store (SQL provider), I would like to be…

Add support for comment and TODO metadata for the xaml
Obviously comments have their place and should not be over-used. XAML activities unfortunately have no support for them however. Trying to comment reasoning for a workflow implementation is not possible without using an activity to express it.
Having support for annotations against activities/artifacts in a workflow would prevent executable activities being used for this purpose.

Make resolve TFS conflict (auto merge, etc) faster
When doing get latest and there is a new version of one or more files, it takes time to analyse if there is a conflict, automerge is long too and if it fails, manual merge takes time too. I think it would be great to improve this.

Add back button to web pages displayed in VS11
When using the Visual Studio UserVoice site, getting to it from VS11 by Help/Report a bug/Suggestions, a web page is shown in a tabbed document. Once you have viewed a particular web page, for example someone else's suggestion, there is no way to get back to the previous page. It looks like we're using a browser, but no "back" button.
BTW, there also seems to be no way to sign in for the suggestions, other than anonymously with an email address. How can you sign in with your Windows Live account?
