I'd rather like a possibility to automatically convert (or semi-convert,
with manual fixes) C# code to Vala. There are some C#/Mono libraries out
there (like Banshees ListView implementation) which provide a real benefit.
Right now these libraries are only available to Mono applications. In some
cases it would make sense to have a 'low level' implementation. It would be
nice if they were available for the whole Gnome eco-system.

Just a thought.
