Visual Studio 2008: A plugin that color-codes Classic ASP VBScript syntax.
This will sound basic, but an incremental search plugin like in Opera to quickly navigate my code.
When pressing a hotkey (in Opera it's ctrl+1) and then starting to type the word you're looking for marks the words it matches and the screen scrolls to the first word it matches. I hate switching to my mouse just for scrolling to the method I'm looking for. Also, the dropdown for all my methods is not an alternative, I'm looking for speed.
I'd love a plugin that can spellcheck resource files and large strings (maybe anything with spaces - that should get rid of string literals that are really part of code) and comments. If it's really clever, it'll give me the option to decompose camel cased things to find misspelled methods/classes.
A plugin that automatically turns off features that I don't use so that the IDE takes less memory and CPU.
Support for version control for multiple version control systems. Git, Mercurial, Darks, Subversion, etc.
Embedding vim in Visual Studio.
