One thing that could help with MonoD would be if it could
effectively support more than the most recent stable version of
MonoDevelop. Version 3.0 is still the one used in many Linux
distros. (4.0 is currently in the "proposed" updates for
Ubuntu 13.10, which means it'll probably be the default by the
time 13.10 is released.)
If VisualD can support VS 2010, 2011 and 2013, it's surely
possible for MonoD to do something similar.
I recognize that the developer has provided an Ubuntu PPA for
the latest MonoDevelop among other resources, but it's
preferable not to oblige users to add extra archives to their
distro.
Judging by the MonoD blog, that doesn't seem to be easy, because
the MonoDevelop developers keep changing the API often.
