"why should they be the only ones to benefit?" - ummm let me see wrong! They clearly aren't the only ones to benefit. Every feature that a vendor implements of course makes their product more saleable but in the end it is us, the consumers that really benefit. Sure if they were genuinely abusing a market position to push products down our throats (no mention of a certain company that makes shiny white products) then it would be a different kettle of fish.
If MS could implement even half the features the community suggests we would have products that are infinitely better than they are. Oh, and while we are talking about wishlists - how about dropping Blend altogether and just pushing those features back into VS where they belong ;-) At the moment we have what seems a very contrived separation of context with designers being able to do developer tasks in Blend while developers are unable to do their job without Blend!
