Well, as a back-seat commenter I agree with you but they probably had a good reason to not do it. Most likely something to do with development complexity. There's a ton of smart people working on Visual Studio, I'm willing to trust their judgment on this :)

Well, they definitely had good reason, it's just that the feature isn't very useful without the extra work. Although, I don't know exactly how much functionality is missing, so I might be wrong.
Well, it might just be laying the groundwork for lazy loading. They probably thought some people might find it useful even as a "half feature".
Yeah, that seems like the most reasonable explanation. It sounds like the answer was just "deadline".
