multiple context
Multiple Contexts - without cross queries.
I think it would be nice to be able to have multiple database connections/contexts. This would be handy in Azure where you can't do cross database queries anyway.
It would just make pulling data from one database into memory and comparing against another easier...

Immediate window in LinqPad
When using Rx, I wish I was able to call OnNext on subjects as needed once the query has being compiled and is running.

Add abiltiy to copy minimum working example (MWE)
It would be nice to have the option of copying a 'Minimum Working Example' to the clipboard. This would make it easier to e.g. post a question on StackOverflow.
It should include all namespaces and a full class declaration containing a static Main-Method. Also see here: https://stackoverflow.com/help/mcve

provide support for mongo db query
i wanted to use linq over a mongo db database but i couldn't find any driver, i found one in codeplex which didn't work as suggested and it wasn't official. It would be really great if a official driver for mongo query is provided as a free feature

Export Connection Strings of Saved Connections
It'd be great if we could quickly get a properly formatted connection string for any of our database connections.

Roslyn syntax tree diagram pan on middleMouse click
It wasn't obvious but I found that I can zoom the syntax tree diagram via the scroll wheel, and that it centres the zoom around the cursor.
However this really needs the ability to pan too - I'd suggest panning with MMB-drag or RMB-drag.
Either that or add scrollbars...12 votes -
Bug - Export menu appears on 2nd monitor when LINQPad is full screen on 1st monitor
I have a two-monitor workstation and often use LINQPad in full-screen mode on my primary (left) monitor. Whenever I click the "Export" drop-down in this scenario, the menu always appears on the 2nd (right) monitor.

Enable LinqPad to ignore explicit 'using' directives that duplicate the namespaces that LinqPad loads by default.
When I typed in the first sample code from C# in a Nutshell, I got a puzzling error message stating that I was trying to use the namespace ('using System;') as a variable. I say this with complete understanding that trapping errors and writing good messages to go with them is challenging, to say the least. Ignoring the supposed error is much preferable to receiving a misleading message--and may be easier to implement within LinqPad.
MSG: "CS0118 'System' is a namespace but is used like a variable"

Support mapping [String].Split() to SQL 2016's STRING_SPLIT
SQL 2016 supports built-in function STRING_SPLIT().
This function corresponds to .net [String].Split(char).
Please enable mapping from C# to SQL when calling .Split() on a string.4 votes -
I need larger fonts everywhere. I do not believe that LinqPad conforms to the usability requirements of ISO 9241 for ergonomic requirements.
The editor font can be changed, but that is not good enough. Not everybody needs larger fonts but everybody will need them eventually. I have a forty dollar editor that lets me change the font everywhere, including the tree controls and menus (which is why I use it). Surely you have the chops to match a text editor. I just cannot keep this upgrade unless I can read the screen without a headache.

View a diff before I hit save
Allow me to see a diff before I hit save.
Quite often I might have made some changes to a saved query, and days / hours later don't know what I changed and if I want to keep the change.
My current workaround is to save to a new filename and run kdiff, but it would be nice to integrate this feature into the program.
I could just put all my snippets in a repo, but that is probably overkill for most people. As .linq files are just text files this should be relatively straightforward.

Live query results
I often use LINQPad to check for new or updated data in SQL tables. I have queries open that I refresh after I make an operation in my application.
It would be really helpful if you could create "live" queries or a change log for a database table or query. I think it would be possible using SqlDependency to get the required notifications.
I imagine something like new or updated rows are added to the bottom of the searchresult and the search result is scrolled down. New and added rows as colored for a period of time to visually indicate…

Install the Beta releases from the UI
Add the possibility of manually installing the last Beta from the user interface.
I install the Beta releases every single time. It would be nice to be able to install the Betas without going to the web site, etc.. manually initiated of course.

Add a No Update Option to LINQPad.exe.config
We recently ran into a problem where the automatic upgrade option caused a bug, and being sure that Linqpad is always invoked with -noupdate is a pain. Having such an option in the LINQPad.exe.config would make for easier work arounds.

Format SQL results table with one row vertically instead of horizontally
I frequently find myself using plain SQL instead of LINQ (some queries are just easier and faster to write). It would be great to have an option that if the result set only contained one row to format it as a single entity in the vertical format instead of the horizontal format. Essentially, it would look the same way if you were to call Table.First(), where all the properties are listed vertically and you only have to scroll down. This would make it much easier to scroll through tables that have many columns when I'm only selecting one row from…

Auto-Create a DumpContainer in Dump(string containerName)
DumpContainer is cool, but it's not convenient to new a DumpContainer() and set the Content.
Please support Dump(string containerName).Like this:
public static class DumpExtensions
{
public static Dictionary<string, DumpContainer> dict = new Dictionary<string, LINQPad.DumpContainer> { };public static T Dump<T>(this T obj, string description, string containerName) { if (!dict.ContainsKey(containerName)) { dict[containerName] = new DumpContainer().Dump(); } dict[containerName].Content = obj; return obj; }}
// Then I can simplely print 1-100 in 5 containers
void Main()
{
DumpExtensions.dict.Clear();
for (int i = 0; i < 100; i++)
{
i.Dump("", (i%5).ToString());
System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(100);
}

Support for Unity C# game development
LINGQPad could be a perfect tool for Unity game development. Not so much the free version but the debugger capabilities gives people an edge with development aswell faster learning capabilities.

Allow references to other LinqPad scripts
I would love to be able to add a reference to a LINQPad script similar to how you would add a project reference in Visual Studio. This would be like the My Extensions script, but rather than global, it would be a selective inclusion.
Main() would not be called, but any types/methods would be available in the referencing script.

Add way to search datagrid contents
Seems like it would be handy to have a way to search the datagrid contents.
You can use ctrl-f in the standard results but that doesn't appear to work when viewing datagrids.
