Invoke/InvokeAsync hangs while debugging until VS restart

Same problem here as @derekchristensen. But thanks to his Jun 4, 2021 mention of `CancelOnProcessTermination` , I was able to workaround the problem by removing the call to `CancelOnProcessTermination`. Now,...

Syntax highlight for Find Reference and Search Result panel too?

FWIW, my Menees VS Tools extension has a [FindResultsClassifier.cs](https://github.com/menees/VsTools/blob/master/src/Menees.VsTools/Editor/FindResultsClassifier.cs) to highlight Find Results like this: ![FindResults](http://www.menees.com/Images/VSFindResultsHighlight.png) Also, the **much** more popular [VSColorOutput](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=MikeWard-AnnArbor.VSColorOutput) extension has a [FindResultsClassifier.cs](https://github.com/mike-ward/VSColorOutput/blob/master/VSColorOutput/FindResults/FindResultsClassifier.cs) to do something similar....

Does not allow arguments that start with the '@' character

Thanks for the update @elgonzo. I already dealt with a bunch of changes going from Beta1 through Beta4. I've been watching this repo for a few years now, and I've...

WindowsFormsApplicationBase.IsSingleInstance applications are global on a machine, not per user

My .NET 7 app just hit this issue. 🙁 Since this won't be fixed until at least .NET 8, I'm going to remove use of `WindowsFormsApplicationBase` and go with a...

Polyfill instance methods with extensions

I agree. This is a great project, and it would be nice if it also filled in some of the new .NET instance methods via extensions. I use the [Microsoft.CodeAnalysis.NetAnalyzers](https://github.com/dotnet/roslyn-analyzers#microsoftcodeanalysisnetanalyzers)...

REQUEST: Add ability to keep Async members immediately following corresponding non-Async members when using default sorting in "Sort Members"

I like this idea. It'll take some work to implement it though, so I'm going to leave this issue open until I can get to it (which may be a...
