b able 2 specify references assemblies & namespaces in linqpad.config
I use linqpad to execute scripts on servers on the cloud. I copy linqpad.exe plus a few useful .net assemblies onto each server via script.
I dont want to have to manually add in the references each time I load linqpad onto a server. It would be much more useful ( and mistake proof) if I can simply do a deploy to my server which included a linqpad.config with the references to my utility assemblies as well as extra namespaces. Please comment if this is not clear and I'll elaborate further.

Tab Icons
It would be nice if the tabs had icons showing if they were SQL or code files. If you have mixed tabs of both, it would be much faster to find the query you're looking for.

like interactive shell, or csharp(1) on Mono, would be nice I think!

Non-blocking UI
Don't block the UI thread when doing some expensive work. I'm using LINQPad at work and at home (ironically I paid for my home license but am using the unregistered version one at work) and at work I connect to large databases with thousands of tables and LINQPad takes a long time to "deal" with scripts connecting to these kinds of databases but it would help with a progress bar or at least some notion of "I'm busy" rather than the ghost whitening of the UI.
Otherwise thanks for a superb product. :-)

"My Queries" directory default to where the .linq file was launched from
For people with multiple projects with multiple folders of linq queries, you would have to use the "Set Folder" feature to change directories. One way to solve this problem is to default to the directory that you clicked on a .linq file. Another idea would be to keep a history of the project roots (folders) like Visual Studio.

(Optionally) show a different icon for each language in the My Queries treeview
(Optionally) show a different icon for each language in the My Queries treeview. Also show different overlays for expressions, statements, programs, etc. for each language. Maybe filters can be applied to sort things out. Make logical folder (like search folders in Outlook) to distinguish the items.

Allow "solution explorer" organization
It would be useful to organize a .linq file in multiple classes, exactly as in Visual Studio "Solution Explorer".
LINQPad is becaming a new light version of Visual Studio for me :).2 votes -
Provide language-dependent query snippets for items in the schema tree (in the context menu)
Currently, all the snippets provided as native LINQ statements and method calls only, irregardless of the nature of the connection/provider. It would be useful to have these snippets in all languages supported by LINPad and (more importantly) applicable to the specific connection/provider, like for instance ESQL or plain SQL. The snippets could be organized in sub-menus by language.

Allow WCF Data Services libraries to be configurable
Since LINQPad is an OData client, it be great if we could configure it to use the latests WCF Data Services libraries, which are now released out of band from the Framework. e.g. http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=29306 is a release that supports Any/All queries, but LINQPad will throw a NotSupported exception when using the exact syntax explained here: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/astoriateam/archive/2011/05/31/any-all-support-in-wcf-data-services.aspx

Don't autowrap existing code with Main() when switching to C# Program
Often I copy a method or class to LinqPad and then change the language to C# Program, which wraps all the code inside Main().
It would be nice to not do this if LinqPad detects the existing code contains methods/classes.2 votes -
Export result to XML
It would be nice to export the result to xml. Two possibilities XML-Node and XML-Attribute. If the user chooses XML-Attribute one Data record is one XML node with all fields as Attribute, Nesting Levels are Nodes.

Adding New Connection defaults
Add a tab to the "Preferences" dialog for "New Connection Defaults". Allow the user to specify certain defaults for creating new connections. I often create a new connection (with the program defaults), then have to delete the connection and re-created to turn off "Pluralize EntitySet and Table properties" and "Capitalize property names". It would be nice if I could turn those off by default.
