My opinion: I would prefer that the IDE does NOT include to many big enhancements.
This will only make the program difficult to use and sensitive to bugs. I prefer a
set of loosly connected tools. Not one big all-in-one-box.

It would be nice to have an option to easily compile a program outside the IDE.
Example:
If I want to compile libraries/programs like "V", "wxWindows", "Allegro", "PovLab",
"PovRay" then this is difficult because the programs come with a "makefile" that
must be started from a commandline compiler. It would be nice to start a command
prompt where I could start the compilation of tools like these. Within this
command-prompt (i.e. a dosbox) all environment variables should be set correctly.

Another wish: Being able to generate "makefile" from my project-file.
