Awesome. I look forward especially to the Mapping under cloak feature. With a dir structure that has many releases (complete copies of the trunk) under a $/proj/Branches/Releases folder it will be nice to cloak the Releases folder and then be able to map just *one* of the releases under that cloaked folder to work on a patch.

The versatility in workspace definition is very good and welcome change (especiallu cloaking thing). Just do not forget to add UI for managing workspaces in large organization.

As an example, the one requirement our client had (whcih we tried to implement in Workspace Sidekick) was the ability to easily duplicate workspaces template across the company, as they had complex solutions structure and inter-solution dependencies based on structure. Command-line is not the best choice for such scenarios :)

Eugenez - Thanks for the feedback. The mappings under cloaks and one level mapping features will be available through the UI. Workspace templates do help a lot in large and complex trees - however it is not currently scheduled for Orcas, I will send along your comments to our feature PM.
