To add on to this: COM.

When you work with non-MEF Visual Studio extensions it's COM all the way down. To port Visual Studio you'd first need to port COM, which is probably never going to happen. Removing COM looks like it would encroach on rewrite territory (and would break a bunch of existing plugins that use it): also incredibly unlikely.
