Understand types in a config file

As far as I remember, this feature is planned for 3.0.

Quite often it is neccessary to enter a fully qualified type into a
config file.

Obvious examples include section handlers in the standard app.config
file, or object types in a spring.net config file.

Currently there is no type support for these entries.

Here are some requests:

1. In a source file, support "Copy fully qualified type name" when the
cursor is on a class to copy the "Namespace.Type, Assembly" style
information to the clipboard

2. In a configuration file containing a "Type,Assembly" attribute,
attempt to recognise it as a type. Support CtrlClick (CtrlB) goto
type declaration

3. In a config file containing an attribute named "type", offer full
type support for entering a "Type,Assembly" using intellisense for
system types, solution types and project referenced types.
