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.

Support for custom DateTime formatting (also for TimeSpan etc.)
LINQPad's results use the default ToString method. I would be excellent if you could register certain types to have a custom rendering.

Add an "all files" option when browsing to open a SQL CE database
Our SQL CE database does not use a standard extension. We use a custom one so we can associate it with our application. I can simply rename the file when I want to use LINQpad with it, but it would be much easier if I were allowed to open a file with any extension as a SQL CE database. I would also be able to use LINQpad to view that database while our application is running, which is sometimes necessary.

Copy and Paste to Visual Studio
In a C# app, my code is often:
DataClassesDataContext db = new DataClassesDataContext();Then the Linq code is, for example
var results = from answer in db.Answers
where answer.Score > 20
select answerBasically, this cannot be copied and pasted to / from LinqPad as the tables are in the DataContext. db. breaks linqPad / VS when it is copied back in.
Would be nice to be able to define the name of the DataContext globally (default), or for each query.

auto graph
Small request. I love the visualisation feature "Show Graph" and it would be nice to have the option to automatically graph all columns in a resultset.

allow opendatasource in LINQ
openDataSource and openRowSet don't seem to work in LINQPad under LINQ instead of SQL. I use these on a number of queries, and would hate to have to go back to SQL everytime I needed data from another server on the one I'm on.

Flag read-only properties in output
I really would like to see for each property whether it's a readonly or a writable property. Maybe you could give the gray background of the headings some red touch for RO ones?

Add a "Copy Name" button on "Password Manager"
There is no "Copy name" feature in the "Password Manager". I need to copy the name and put it in my Query. Sometimes the name is long and hard to remember.

Add extra XY series to chart
Currently in the beta charting works really nice, except it is not possible to add an extra XY set, only a Y set can be added using .AddYSeries.

Some global settings should be per query
Some settings which are currently global (in Edit > Preferences) should be moved to Query Properties. For instance:
Query tab:
- Compile with/without /optimize+
- Use Roslyn prototype assemblies
Advanced tab:
- Compile VB queries in strict mode
- Do not shadow assembly references
- Run queries in MTA threads
- Use MARS with database connections

Set Open In Excel name to Grid Title from Dump
When you use Open in Excel on a grid, the Excel (html) file that is opened is named after the query name, but should be named after the Grid title from the Dump command that created the Grid, if one exists.

Better experience for __SOURCE_DIRECTORY__ in F#
The FSharp compiler macro 'SOURCE_DIRECTORY' doesn't seem to behave as expected in linqpad - specifically it points to a linqpad temporary execution directory, and not where the .linq file itself resides.
This makes it problematic to use F# type providers within linqpad. Referring to data files relative to the script is pretty common, but the path supplied to a type provider has to be a compile-time literal - ie Util.CurrentQueryPath can't be used. Absolute paths obviously break across machines.
Not sure if a fix even is possible (I can't see anywhere on the F# compiler where you can…

Maintain a list of most recently used assemblies
There are a few assemblies I often use in LinqPad queries, that are not in the GAC or on Nuget. Every time, I have to browse to their location to find them (e.g. Windows.winmd to use WinRT APIs). It would be nice if there was a "recently used" list in the "Additional references" tab

When copying for Markdown/Stack Overflow, find a way to add in using-directives and references
The menu item for "Copy for Markdown/Stack Overflow" ends up copying code that in most cases won't compile without manual intervention by the person who grabs it off of Stack Overflow.
Specifically, these two things is on the query options tab, and has to be manually added for the query code to compile and execute:
- References
- Using directives
It would be nice if those two things could be copied alongside the query code, for instance as specially crafted comments at the top, that would be recognized by LINQPad upon pasting back into it, and moved to the appropriate places.
ie.

line numbers when editing Stored Proc (beta 4.37.11 has it for queries)
Line numbers are present in a beta release , but only for new Query windows and not when viewing/editing Stored Procs in a DB.
