Further more, I would be very wary of tieing yourselves to a Microsoft API. They tend to be a moving taget, and are very expensive to support because of the large changes that occur from release to release. (just look at the MAPI interfaces, or the Com interfaces).
I would prefer to see a general API, such that an enterprising consultant or someone else can do that work. This would free up our intellij friends to work on those things that are simply not possible through a general API (like improvements in the editor, or better refactorings, etc). I would even go so far to say that I would prefer more general and broad features over clearcase integration (even though I use clearcase), because I find the external tool support to be adequate in most cases. A final note on all Configuration Management integrations. It appears that they are quite difficult. The number of CVS Integratio bugs in the last several months of this release seemed to be quite high. I would guess 40% of the total number of bugs. If this is a sign of the complexity of these integrations, I would wonder if it is really worth the effort. Perhaps support for an external tool "checkout " such that refactorings that need to modify a read-only file can call the "checkout" command would provide a moderate amount of integration without expense of a full integration.
