The answers are: No, the console is not supposed to be there and Yes, you can turn it off by specifying the compiler option "-target:winexe". In Monodevelop just go the the project properties and add this option to the additional comiler flags.
One last point: You are right, the GUI designer is not implemented in Mono VB so far. Please use Glade (http://glade.gnome.org/) as a stand-alone application to design your GUI. There are implementations of Glade for Linux, Windows and MacOS. When it's finished you can use the Glade Sharp Code Generator (see: http://github.com/FireRabbit/glade-sharp-code-generator/tree/master) to create a Mono VB program frame.
