why are we limited to picking assemblies from the GAC?

Is there a way to choose assemblies to decompile that remain on disk?

    You should find you can decompile any assemblies that are referenced by the project that's currently open in Visual Studio. Is that working for you?

    We are thinking about putting in the ability to browse to find an assembly to decompile, which would be useful, for example, to step through assemblies that are loaded by reflection.

    That's not the only case. Think SharePoint, where the hosting environment has assemblies already loaded that you may want to step into when your project is deployed. This is a much more common case.
