Most of those issues are with Unity not MonoDevelop, aren't they?

I hear you though - debugging Unity projects is a real toolchain weakness. I'm lucky if I can even get the debugger to connect.

Text search works fine for me though! I've never had a problem with it.

My worst problem with it actually is just stability, but I've never lost work with it and it restarts pretty quickly.

What are you working on, out of interest? (If you're allowed to say!) :)

True, but I consider them as one platform (Unity and its customized MonoDevelop, specifically).

It's a weird bug that was probably unique to the 3.3 version.

I get a lot of freezes and crashes too, but to its credit MonoDevelop definitely has a very robust autosave.

3-d mapping (à la Google Earth, but with different goals).
