  2. Allow users to disable highlighted text execution

    If I attempt to run a query with anything highlighted only the highlighted text is executed. This is a really nice feature for some scenarios but I'd really like the ability to turn it off.

    When I'm building longer code queries i almost always have code highlighted inadvertently so I am constantly accidentally executing a few lines of code. This is usually just annoying but it has a huge potential to be dangerous as well as it lets me accidentally bypass my other conditions when doing data operations.

  3. Intercept and echo calls to Debug.WriteLine or other trace calls.

    Adding a window that allows trace calls to be seen would aid in debugging drivers. These could be seen easily in LINQPad (perhap by enabling/disabling the visibility of these) when loading and testing a new driver or even allow such calls embedded in dynamically created source, to also log stuff - very hard to see otherwise.

  7. Allow to change the "back-tick" key in the preferences (badly needed for non-US keyboards)

    On keyboards without a back-tick key usable without any modifier key (alt, alt-gr), to select multiple columns you have to key-in <Alt>+<9><6>, which would already be pretty bad but actually gets worst on laptops without numerical keypads (a lot of them!): I have to key-in: <Fn>+<NumLock>,<Alt>+<9>,<6> for every column I want to select.

    I own the premium edition, and don't use it because of this...

  9. Support a "refresh driver" feature to avoid the need to unload/relaod during development of a new driver.

    In the Add Connection dialog is a 'Delete Driver' feature, I sugges you add a 'Refresh Driver' to that simply deletes the driver and reloads it again from the same place.

  12. If user manually adjusts column widths in a query window - remember these settings.

    If uses adjust the cols in a query result set, then if they run that query again and the result "shape" is the same, then use these adjusted col widths for these new results.

    Only if the shape of the results changes from one run to the next is there any need to reset these (even in that case it could remember the widths I guess - on a per col basis)

  14. autocomplete data-entry on "Additional Namespace Imports" tab using info from the assemblies on the "Additional References" tab.

    Typing namespaces is error prone and not validated on the Additional-Namespace-Imports tab. In loading the the "Additional References" assemblies, the namespaces (including spelling and character-casing) could be auto-completed to their correct values. I forgot the case of one character in the namespace, and my only clue was that intellisense wasn't picking up the classes that I expected in the namespace I had mistyped.

    Almost every week LinqPad give a new update verision. But as a user I don't know how to use these new feature, so these valueable feature can not make any value for me.

  20. Allow the user to sort using statements and references

    Currently, it is very hard to find references on the "Additional References" and "Additional Namespace Imports" tabs when in the Query Properties window. This is harder when using LINQPad with enterprise applications that require a lot of references and using statements.

    keep up the good work!
