I think the GUI for complete AndroidManifest.xml editing is going to be
extremely complex to write and use.  (Eclipse's is little more than a straight
XML editor.)

Currently, the GUI creates the manifest like Eric posted, and leaves out the
<activity> elements which are then created by monodroid.exe, though users can
manually add them if they want.

My (D) suggestion is to develop a series of Attributes one can apply to their
Activities that monodroid.exe can look for to build the <activity> element.

ie:

[Name ("mono.samples.hello.HelloActivity")]
[Label ("My Activity Title")]
[Category ("android.intent.category.LAUNCHER")]
[Category ("android.intent.category.SAMPLE_CODE")]
[DefaultActivity (true)]
public class MyActivity : Activity
{
}
