  3. Donate your "Add Custom Assembly Reference" code to the next version of Visual Studio.

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

  8. Database rename renames the connection.

    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.

  9. Physical DB Data Model View

    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.

  10. Option to format DateTime using the Round-trip pattern. Ex 6/15/2009 1:45:30 PM -> 2012-01-31T10:45:30.0900023

    This will help to compare the CTI exact time (including nanoseconds) with the Insert events start and end times, very useful to have an understanding what is going on, thanks, LINQ pad is a very useful tool.

  12. Script data in tables as a function

    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.

  14. It would be nice to be able to open a local XML file with File:\\c:\xmlfile.xml to query against. instead of requiring SQL or HTTP.

    I have a program that needs to parse a local XML file on the filesystem. It seems LINQPad doesnt like it when I try to add a local file reference as my source. It whines "Expected an absolute, well formed http URL without a query or fragment.
    Parameter name: serviceRoot"

  15. Save all modified tabs command using Ctrl+Shift+S as keyboard shortcut

    i.e., similar to Visual Studio. I'm frequently modifying several tabs at the same time. It gets tedious having to click on each in turn and then saving individually.

  16. I think a regular WPF grid with all sorts of customization and theme goodies would be better.

    The word wrapping really makes it a problem to surf the grid. I think your idea of the grid is absolutely excellent. I just wish you used WPF instead of HTML table to render the result set. Also removing columns from grid after the result appeared. Allow us to lock columns when scrolling horizontally. Group columns from result set.

  19. Add 'Resolve' to Right Click

    Add ability to right click on an unknown type and click Resolve similiar to Visual Studio. You have the feature now, but only way to do it is to hover over the little contextual help 'thing' and select the namespace.

  20. 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...
