    I do not know of a plugin that does this. It is an interesting idea. We are looking at adding something like a “my work items” view in Visual Studio that would show you your recent items (like an MRU for work items). This would be in vNext.

    Sorry, forget about this for the moment, I saw it from RC, but in RTM it seems name space Microsoft.TeamFoundation.WorkItemTracking.Controls is no longer avaliable, maybe in next SDK or maybe it will disappear completely

    Microsoft.TeamFoundation.WorkItemTracking.Controls should be available in your Microsoft Visual Studio 8\Common7\IDE\PrivateAssemblies directory.

    Ok, the general idea is have in the Tree folders containing WorkItems, then the user double-click in the WorkItem, in this moment open the WorkItem Editor Dialog.

    I find a class called WorkItemEditor in the integration package of TeamFundation but, i don't know how obtain a intance ( the constructor is internal :( ).

    In the Visual Studio 2005 SDK, under Visual Studio Team System Integration, in the folder "Work Item Tracking" you have a sample called "Work Item Interface Sample" which has a sample of using the controls for work item editor
