I'd rather they worked on improving IDE support for Clang and LLVM when it comes to "unmanaged" languages, as well as moved some of those compiler and optimization engineers to improving LLVM. LLVM still lags a bit behind GCC when it comes to performance of the machine code it generates, so I'm sure improvements there would be quite welcome, and I'm also sure Microsoft has the expertise to make it happen. For extra brownie points, help the community implement a portable debugger that doesn't suck, because thus far all attempts at this have failed miserably.

Microsoft C++ compiler is a source of aggravation at best. Their unmanaged language tooling has been neglected for nearly a decade while FOSS community (led by none other than Apple) plowed ahead and delivered the work of art that is Clang/LLVM, and a profusion of languages like Rust and Swift that run on top of that infrastructure.

Unfortunatly LLVM/CLang is a second citizen on Windows. It's tough to use anything that depends on it.

And that's exactly my point. It doesn't have to be this way.
