There are already tools for this stuff. Problem is that they are all various forms of crappy and the market is so small that there is little incentive to improve them. I work in Medical Devices and one of the tools I'm supposed to use (we find every excuse to avoid it) has a UI like a 2001 Swing app and while it works, it is insanely painful to use due to its absolutely counterintuitive interface.

We're actually integrating more and more of our work in to Visual Studio since its tools are excellent. The problem is that the organization needs to validate any tool before we can use it as a part of Quality Management and that process can take forever.

Visual Studio is awesome. I'm really excited to see how Code turns out on Linux, especially for things like building GUI apps and 3D stuff.
