A simple ellipse tool would be great. I am using the VisualBasic.Powerpacks.vs for this.

Is there Startby or Contains feature available in VS ?

Can the search match not only words starting with the value but also that "contains" it? That would be nice, if you are searching for RadioButton but you only remember that "button" is part of the control name. Today if you type Button it will only match controls where name starts with Button, but RadioButton will not be included. This is cool in the new intellisense

There is one other feature that would be really useful. If I'm working in WinForms, only show the WinForms controls. If I'm working in ASP, only show the relevant controls. If silverlight....

I agree with the comment above - by the time you install a couple of versions of DevExpress, Infragisitics, etc the toolbox becomes completely unmanageable, and just finding the right controls is by far the slowest part of development.

ice: you can collapse all the groups by pressing "/" (and you can expand them all with "*").

"/" Don't works in version 10.0.21006.1 B2Rel*

Jose, I agree with you -- I would have liked for us to do more here in VS10, and I had a plan that incorporated filtering as you describe. We're going to revisit searching and filtering in VS11 (in more places than just the toolbox) and I will certainly try to deliver an experience in that release that doesn't feel "incomplete".
