I also hate the fact that the XML schema editor was removed from Visual Studio 2008. Microsoft seems to believe that few people used it, but for people like me who didn't want to take the time or trouble to type in our schemas and instead wanted a visual representation of what we were doing, it was invaluable. Certainly there were problems with it, but to remove it rather than fix it is ludicrous! I now have at least four versions of Visual Studio on my primary development machine... Ugh! -Pete
