Load a webpage into iframe in results window
I would like to use a function like Util.LoadPage(string url int width, int height) to load a webpage into an iframe in the result window.
Currently I'm using File.WriteAllText(fileName, contents, Encoding.Default); and Util.RawHtml to push the iframes into the result window, but for some reason the iframes opens up internet explorer in most cases.

run current command
Thanks for AMAZING productivity tool. I would like a feature to run only the command at cursor (not all commands on page). Suggested invocation - right-click context menu option and/or [Alt/Ctrl] + F5.

add a dark theme
i find dark themed environments a lot more comfortable to work in. That's why almost all IDE's have them as an option.

Clicking "add connection" needs a SQL Server option
Click "add connection" there are 3 options "linq to sql", "WCF..." and "MS Datamarket...". None of these allow me to connect to SQL Server. Nothing in "view more drivers" looks like SQL Server either. My friend got it to work after a lot of time & effort, but doesn't remember how he did it. SQL Server is very popular. It should be easy to connect to it.

LINQPad, handy scretch pad.... Why not share?
I keep coming back to LINQPad to write few lines, execute ...verify, then go back to implement the small bit I just wrote and I am sure everyone does that and some would save those random scratch for later use or reference. So I wonder, why not a code snippet share feature directly from LINQPad? It would increase awareness and allow us share or persist some of the quick code written every now and then.
Cheers.

Create a way to associate .sdf-Files (SQL CE) with LinqPAD
For using LinqPAD for everyday work it would be extremely helpful to have a file association set to open .sdf-Files with LinqPAD directly. Up to now I do not think this is possible. Maybe you could consider a command line option to pass a filename (or connection string) to LinqPAD at start - this would be perfectly sufficient for us by enabling us to write a wrapper providing the desired functionality.

Add the GIST API to the script explorer
Add some level of source control. I would like to have the gists API integrated directly into LINQpad. Because basically gists are scripts.

Don't automatically populate the connection when creating a new query
Sometimes when I start up a new query, I type a single C# expression like "Environment.OSVersion" and then hit run. It doesn't execute instantly and I look at the status bar and see "Fetching Schema...". Then I see that LINQPad automatically assumed that I was going to use the connection I used last time I wrote a query and added it for me. Although this may be useful for someone who uses LINQPad exclusively for querying a single database, this is annoying for others who use it as a C# scratchpad or frequently query different data sources.

Set primary key
Linqpad cannot insert into tables with no primary key defined in the database. For instance, I have a table with an auto-incrementing identity column. In visual studio I can insert into this table simply by defining the identity column as primary key with auto-sync false in the dbml or editing the edmx xml by hand.

allow multiple data contexts per query
I would like to be able to take data from multiple sources and munge them together, but right now only a single context is allowed. I guess you could do this with mega data context that references other data contexts.

Be able to add connections to Xml Files
In the Add Connection pane, one should be able to add a connection which allows you to browse to an Xml File (or any file that has an Xml File structure even) and thereby be able to use Linq to Xml to query from that Xml File.

Integrate with GitHub (gist)
Many LINQPad scripts are short blocks of code that would be useful to a wider community if shared.
Sharing a LINQ 'script' as a Gist on GitHub means you get versioning/change management and social sharing. You can get the top LINQ 'scripts' written by others and share your own. Others can comment on your scripts / fork them etc.
Perhaps it could be implemented as another "Tab" next to "My Queries" and Samples, called "My Gists".

Add additional database option in menus
I feel like the 'easy' way to add additional databases to a query is way too cryptic: holding down Ctrl while dragging the additional db to the query.
There should be a menu option when right-clicking a database in the connections pane, or in the Query menu. Just somewhere where you can discover it intuitively, in stead of having to check the FAQ.1 vote -
Add support for "select *" to autocomplete in C#
When I type "select new { t1.", it gives me the option "(press ` to select multiple items). I would also like the option "(press * to select all items)", it would then insert all field names for the table, in the original order.

Navigate To/Control- to Search and Create New Query for Connection
Using Navigate To (Control+,), allow us to type name of connection as well and if we select it, it automatically makes a new query against that connection. I'm pretty much 'mouse' free on LINQPad except for this scenario.

Enable raw text in output
I sometimes have to work with devices like thermal printers and need to have characters like TABs in the output. The current text option (HTML) automatically convert TAB to spaces and prevents me from getting an accurate and usable output.

Enable Auto Hide of connection/tree pane
It would be nice if one could enable auto hide of the Connection/entity/tree pane. As with the various panels in Visual Studio. I spend most of my time in the editor and like to have a lot of screen realestate. So auto-hiding is a useful feature.
