It would be really nice. The closest we have, so far I know, is Cygwin (I don't what it's like now, I used it a long time ago)

Cygwin is pretty good. I am not sure how you can do much better it has a big range of command line programs you can run, vim, git etc. The next step beyond cygwin is to install a linux vm, then to dual boot, then to single boot and chuck out Windows :-). Can't bring myself to do that though as a C#-ie.
