Yes, that's definitely something I can look into. I've noticed one
crasher related to some of the threading stuff in the boo shell I'd like
to get resolved at one point too.

I wouldn't really consider the boo Add-In "complete" until I get around
to implementing all the necessary bits to do Stetic/Gtk# design with it
at well. One of these weeks the urge will hit me and I'll finally find
the time to sit down and implement the missing bits for this.

I'd also love to see the C#-isms from the editor removed, so one or two
things from Boo could work more easily as well (the one I can think of
off the top of my head is having "import " actually give you the
namespace list, like "using " does in C# right now).
