The text editor is by and far the most important part of the IDE and is the only part everyone will use.
It's also the thing that's most important to flow, to producing, not navigating or testing.
That it can pause and stutter when you're just trying to do a simple edit is pretty silly.
I love VS and it's one of the things I always miss whenever using something else, but there's a lot of annoyances and a lot of sub-par features and some you should never use features.
I notice you said "integrated version control interface", if you're talking about TFS, it's terrible. Stop using it. The interface is terrible, all generic tables that you can't tell apart. It's a massive effort to see file changes. And worse than all of that, the actual version control system is shockingly bad, even compared to SVN, let alone Git. You're a madman to be using TFS, it's so bad.
