(TGIF a bit late) I've been playing around with VS2022 in a VM for a couple
of weeks. Superficially it looks and feels similar to 2019, but I haven't
poked into the depths yet. It compiles and runs all of my personal projects
without a worry, but I ran into the following issues:

I have to maintain lots of Framework 4.5 projects for a few more months
(until new live Windows Server 2019 machines are deployed). Unfortunately
the earliest Framework support is for 4.6.1 (2?), but that's fair enough as
4.5 is OLD. Luckily I'll be able to upgrade all those old projects to 4.8
to prepare for the new servers. Be aware that old Frameworks are dropped.

The following extensions are not available, but it's early days:

- Installer MSI/vdproj projects. We'll be completely stuffed if they don't
bring that one up.
- Sandcastle doc (hang on ... as I type ... I installed the extension, but
there is no project of the SHFB type ... confusing!).
- Tangible T4 free template colour coder (not critical, but really helpful).

Anyone else discovered anything starling about VS2022?
