  1. Allow users to submit scripts to a LINQPad online script repository and have ratings and view counts to sort by.

    Turn on "ambient intellisense" (ambient autocomplete) for extension methods not downloaded but provided on the Web. (Build and maintain index on client). And a magic key combo to automatically download that extension and any dependencies it has on other ambient code. Show reviews, ratings and view count in client.

  2. A driver or mode that executes a program but does not execute any LINQ to SQL changes but instead captures these in a new SQL script you can save.

  3. Can be important to see the generated calls of Std Query Operators when designing new LINQ providers. Request clicking the lambda button next to "Results" to show this, as in
    from x in new int[] {1,2,3}
    select x * x

    new int[] {1,2,3}.Select(x=>x*x)

    This gets real important with the various SelectMany overloads, as in

    for a in new int[] {2,3}
    for b in new int[] {7, 11}
    select new int[] {a, b}

    does this gen code for

    IEn<B> SelectMany<A,B>(this IEn<A> as, Func<A, IEn<B>> f)

    or for

    IEn<B> SelectMany<A,B>(this IEn<A> as, Func<A, IEn<A>> f, Func<A, A, B>> g)

    ? Would love…

  5. Currently I get the following exception when accessing POCO methods and properties.
    NotSupportedException: The specified type member 'Language' is not supported in LINQ to Entities. Only initializers, entity members, and entity navigation properties are supported.

  6. It would be very useful to have the option to put query results in a grid with sortable columns etc. instead of just HTML.

  10. They haven't gotten it right in over 10 years! In 2010 it got a little better. But they need your asynchronous search capability!

  15. Right clicking on the database and selecting Rename actually brings the window to rename the connection and not the database. So, either the context menu for the database needs to be fixed, or the renaming of the database should be allowed. Otherwise it is misleading.

  16. I found LINQPad can also support SQL command query and this does make helps sometimes. However, the left-up view can only show the entity model, it's will be more helpful if this view can also show the physical data model like many other SQL tools show. By referring this physical data model we can make correct SQL commands more easily.

  19. A function that autoscripts the data of particular (selected) table(s) into a SQL formatting. It would help me to completely get SQL Enterprise Mngr out... Now I do this via "select database", Tasks, Generate Scripts, Select Advanced button and change the types of data to script to: Schema and Data.
