Add an "always on top" capability
Fairly frequently, after working out a solution in LINQPad, I would like to keep it on top while I work in VS or another application.
It would be very helpful to have a toolbar with a button to toggle "always on top". Can be done in a menu obviously -- but a button that is always available would be GREAT!

Support Open Types (Dynamic Properties)
Since linqpad is such a nice UI, it would be great for it to provide first-class support for open types (entities with dynamic properties)

Add Snippets Tab to house custom drag-and-drop snippets
Add an additional tab along side the Samples and My Queries tabs that will house and organize my custom snippets. From there I need to be able to drag and drop the snippet into whatever current Linq sheet I am working on. This would save a lot of repetitive typing doing ad-hoc queries.

enter a lambda and see the LINQ (reverse of current functionality, where linq can be seen as lambda)
Basically I want to reverse the current built in process, where you can enter a LINQ statement and down in the results window click the lambda tab to see it converted over. I would like to be able to enter a Lambda expression and in the results window see the LINQ version of it.

Remove online activation
Resharper provides a user friendly copy protection and LINQPad should do so too. Please.

Support MEF (Managed Extensibility Framework) based addins
The idea is to make it easy to develop reusbale plugins for LINQPad.
For example: LINQPad could scan a folder (say "plugins") and compile all the scripts therein. These scripts could then be added to a MEF catalog and therefore made available to all LINQPad scriptlets.
For example, if LINQPad were to support an interface ISettings which included a property called DataContext, it would be easy to add new DataContext providers
interface ISettings
{
DataContext dataContext;
}Then when LINQPad (or a script) needed to access the DataContext it would merely use the its DataContext property, with all the heavy…

Show SQL-Server Execution Plan
I always look at them in SSMS. I think that SQL Server returns them as XML so it should not be hard to print that out.

Integrate with a code snippet site like Pastie
It would be nice to send a linqpad query window to something like http://pastie.org/ so that it is easy to request assistance from others.

Support entity models embedded in another assembly
Right now selecting another DLL causes it to do "AssemblyName.csdl|AssemblyName.msl|AssemblyName.ssdl" which doesn't work

Support multiple tab panes (a.k.a. tab groups)
...like SQL Server Management Studio for example, so I can look at multiple code snippets and/or result sets side-by-side together, and so I can organize related stuff together when I'm using LINQPad for multiple projects at once.

support XSLT
It would be very nice if there was the single snippet IDE for LINQ, SQL and XSLT. Architag XRay XML Editor is good for XSLT, but just not as good (ergonomic) as LINQPad is for LINQ.

Display triggers
I would like the to be able to see triggers that are on tables. In the same way that I can look at the definitions of SPs and functions.

Create DataContext with XmlMappingSource
In the connection properties dialog, you could add a field for XmlMappingSource path and then use it to create the DataContext:
string xml = File.ReadAllText(pathToXmlMappingFile);
MappingSource mapping = XmlMappingSource.FromXml(xml);
DataContext context = new DataContext(connectionString, mapping);

Configfile per .Linq file
In a .linq file there would be a reference to a config file. That file is loaded as the configuration for whatever runs in the file. This allows code to run that expect certain values in the config, such as anything from the Enterprise Library. It also ensures that the code you call does exactly the same an on a clients configuration.

Boo support would be nice
Like Python and Ruby, this feature could be integrated with no pain. There is an hosting interface for boo. It's all about syntax coloring and intellisense.

Change database selector to two dropdowns
One for server and the other for database. With many connections having only a single dropdown makes the list quite long and hard to navigate.
