Great feedback , just in one day so far! I'm glad their email made as deep an impression on others as it did on myself.
I did have another thought I would like to add to the discussion - Redgate obviously has some serious skills in .net development and sql server mechanics, as evidenced by their work integrating their tools into the SQL Server 2008 Management Studio ( a Visual Studio 2008 shell essentially), so I really believe that Redgate has a lot that they could contribute to the future of .NET Reflector. I just don't like a free tool becoming a pay-to-play tool without sufficiently understood and accepted justification from the user base when so many depend on it daily.
If Redgate can contribute significantly to the development of the tool, then why not allow the user community to have a stake and manage it as an open source development effort with the community, with Redgate contributing from some revenue source (support, bundling, ads, etc) that would keep it free? And get the free labor in return?
I'm just a customer for the SQL tools myself, and really get more out of day's work using the SQL toolbelt than I would without it, so it saddens me that Redgate can't figure out a better way to handle this than directly monetizing the .NET Reflector. / comments

SQL Prompt 2 and block indentation in SQL Management Studio
I depend on being able to hilight sections of text in SSMS and indent and un-indent and this doesn't work with the current version o SQL Prompt2.
Fixing that would be nice.
Thanks Bart!
I love the product and it has much potential and much usefulness already in place.
