SharePoint 2010: SharePoint vNext wishlist

SharePoint 2010: SharePoint vNext wishlist

A place to give feedback and include feature requests.
  • It would be nice if SPFolder.GetFolderByUrl was public so that I don't have to use a slow try..catch block around the indexer in case the folder doesn't exist".
     
  • The current Client Side Object Model (CSOM) is not complete for content and permissions features. This makes it difficult to effectively use SharePoint with a Windows Azure application. The CSOM needs to be complete both for new features and also for the missing functionality that exists already.
     
  • SPUser.IsMemberOf(GroupName) - to quickly check if a user is a member of a given Group (as opposed to iterating). This should also work with AD Security Groups - if a User is member of an AD Group and the AD Group is a member of the SPGroup, this should return true.
     
  • SPWeb.SiteGroups.Exists(GroupName) (Or LINQ's .Contains) - to quickly check if a group with a given name already exists
     
  • List.Exists which is painfully missing
     
  • Declaratively update a content type that was also created declaratively
     
  • SocialCommentManager.DeleteComment needs to be public. It's nice that I can build a nice display of comments and allow people to add new comments, but not having a delete function available is bad, and using Reflection is always a bit icky.
     
  • Same goes for SocialComment.CommentID which is also internal.

 

  • Improve social computing features to incorporate IBM My Connection-like features

 

  • SPWebConfigModification - Add a "Before" and "After" property to be use when "Type" is equal to "SPWebConfigModification.SPWebConfigModificationType.EnsureChildNode" so that you can specify the name of the child node that you want your node to be inserted before or after....
