SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS) 19.1 and Recent Changes, Part 2

Hi wfvdijk - we are definitely aware of the issue with using CTRL+ ALT + R to open a link.  Of note: I am able to use CTRL + click and have the site open in an external browser (not within SSMS).  I understand the value of being able to browse from within SSMS and not having to switch to another application.  At this time, we are constrained by our dependency on Visual Studio and cannot easily remove the IE reference.  However, we are expecting that in the next major release of SSMS (version 20), we will remove all references to IE.  While not an immediate solution, hopefully it helps to know that we are aware and do want to resolve this.

gwalkey I am guessing that your list is a set of requests for SSMS 20?  If so:

• Yes, SSMS 20 will be 64-bit
• It is possible to create extensions for SSMS (there are third party companies that do this), but they are not officially supported and it's quite possible that breaking changes across versions can occur
• With regard to hanging on cancelled queries, I'm wondering if you're talking about this: SSMS - Querying transaction count - Async · Community (azure.com).  If so, please note that we added an option in 19.x under Tools > Options > Query Execution > SQL Server > General > Check for open connections before closing T-SQL query windows
• I'm not quite sure what you mean with "Azure to On-Prem Upsizers for those who value performance over convenience" - could you please explain in more detail, or open a feedback item?  Thanks!
