It would be useful and relatively easy to implement code completion for T4 tags and directives when editing T4 files.

Pending		Low	Medium

It would be useful to have completion and syntax highlighting for C# within T4 files. This should come almost for free if it can leverage the interfaces used for plugging C# completion into ASP.NET files.

The only missing feature in the T4 engine is the custom directive processors. This is a system by which subclasses of a special type can handle custom directives and inject code into the template class.
