Selectable text in controls
Users should be able to highlight any text in a Silverlight application, copy and paste it, or do whatever is appropriate in a given context. For example, TextBlock doesn't allow text selection. Currently, I can add TextBox objects and set their isReadOnly to true, but this is just a workaround. Silverlight should support text selection by default like HTML does.

Support underline for font in TextBox control
I cannot believe that the font for a TextBox control cannot be set to underline. Must be the way fonts are done.

add official support for Maxthon browser.
Silverlight works on most pages in the Maxthon 3 browser, but not so good on Microsoft's own pages. Now, I must use a temporary solution, change the User Agent string to IE9 and everything works perfectly. Please make it possible to use Silverlight with Maxthon3 on Hotmail, Photosynth etc without the need for changing the UA string.

Bug with zoom and DropShadow effect
There is a huge bug in Silverlight, where the wrong button is selected when you click.
Steps to reproduce:
- Create a border with DropShadowEffect and Right HorizontalAlignment
- put 6 Buttons in the Border
- set unique ToolTips to Buttons
- run the application in IE with zoom set to, let's say 150%
- go with mouse over the rightmost Button and do not move it after ToolTip is displayed
- Click without moving the mouseYou can notice that instead of the Button you wanted to click, one of the Buttons to the left will be clicked.

System.Data.Services.Providers available for client apps
This namespace can used to build a tool to map some data received by a client to entities of the client application.
For example, System.Data.Services.Providers namespace is not available for Silverlight applications today.

Please add ConstructorArgumentAttribute to the SL BCL
Hello!
I've been trying out SL5 now, and I was very pleased to see the IMarkupExtension<T> interface.
The joy is double: 1) it finally arrived to Silverlight 2) it's an interface (Now can be combined with DependencyObject etc.
Now I would like to ask for one more favor Silverlight lacks from WPF, and that is the ConstructorArgumentAttribute. this allows short syntax in the XAML markup extension:
Text="{Binding MyPath}" instead of Text="{Binding Path=MyPath}"
prism...RegionName="{c:MyExtension MyConstructorArgument}".Checkout this: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.windows.markup.constructorargumentattribute.aspx
