  1. Package parts for reusability. Vote
  2. Folder options in Visual Studio for SSIS projects. Vote
  3. BI templates for the latest Visual Studio (want to look cool among my .Net colleagues). Vote and Vote
  4. Toolbox improvements (ordering and folders). Vote and Vote
  5. Rename refactoring option (try to rename an used variable). Vote
  6. Change column order of Flat File connection manager. Vote
  7. Validate without running option. Vote

    One more... Auto Layout isn't working when you add a Group around transformations. This makes grouping of transformations basically useless. Vote

    And one more... The logging levels for SSIS 2012 are too restricted. If I need for example OnPipelineRowsSent then the only option is Verbose which is performance wise not a good standard (and not recommended as default). Vote
