You asked this in the Lounge ! Expect talent, brilliance and ... high resolution (actually 1024*1024 is not that good anymore).

Well if I'd asked in QA gawd knows what answers I'd have got!

I know in my heart that this is sarcasm and I should be offended but ... I've always wanted a talented and brilliant embody so, thank you!

Nah, only 10,718,970 - "Dij the Cat" is technically a sock puppet, even if he has his own email address.

Trust me, that would have worked!
Mind you "Dreamies" Salmon flavour would have worked better - he will even do "Sit!" for them.

An add-on-in that detects the very frequent times it is not ready to perform some operation because:
1. when you click on a Control in WinForms, and then hit F4 to bring up the Property Inspector: it opens said Inspector with no content displayed, requiring you to close said Inspector and re-open it.
2. you choose to open the design-view when you are working in a code-behind view, and it needs to load the Form (that's what it tells you in the in-progress dialog it puts up, anyway) ... even if the design-view tab is currently present in the view-tabs.
Myriad other cases in WinForms, and, I'm sure, similar in ASP, WPF, etc.
So, what is needed is an add-on-in that lets you record (or link to sound-files) of some appropriate sounds to be played during these frequent "pregnant pauses."
So, when it puts up the blank Property Inspector, I can hear something like: "Gate gate paragate parasamgate Bodhi svaha !"
Or, in many other cases of "surprise delays," perhaps: "Not tonight Dear, I have a headache."

“I'm an artist: it's self evident that word implies looking for something all the time without ever finding it in full. It is the opposite of saying : ‘I know all about it. I've already found it.’
As far as I'm concerned, the word means: ‘I am looking. I am hunting for it. I am deeply involved.’” Vincent Van Gogh

How about an animated character similar to "clippy" - let's call him/her/it "curly" - who pops up to entertain you with animated antics until the IDE is ready.

Simply pop up a message saying "Try notepad..."

This is a Microsoft product we are talking about: it can't just "pop up a message".
It has to slide a thing in from the bottom right corner, unfold it into a box, fade it into view, then give you a button to see the message. (Which takes you to the metro screen even if you have windows 7, and won't let you back)
"Pop up a message" - tch! So last week!

I see, back to Java I go...

Google translate did a good job on that: Detected it as Javanese and translated it to English as:
"Gate Gate paragate parasamgate svaha Risen!"
So I manually change the detection to Thai, whereupon it magically become:
"Gate gate paragate parasamgate Bodhi svaha!"
Which is clearly much, much more useful...
