To make WebMatrix better, I suggest you ...

Fix for RUN bug please.

The Webmatrix 2 RUN function finds index.vbhtml (in my site) and runs it. BUT the locahost no longer shows "localhost99999/index.vbhtml". This does not help my iternal validation rules or my testing. This behaviour is also different to the behavior in Microsoft Visual Web Developer 2010 Express which I use as my major debuggng tool. I also hope (trust) that this behaviour is not being introduced into the live (as opposed to development) Internet environment!
Webmatrix 1 did not behave this way, Can this be fixed please

        The run button runs the default entry point to the site, as opposed to V1 that runs the current open file. We got quite a few complaints about the V1 behavior as for example .css files are not runnable etc.

        To define what run button is going to run (and it is the runtime behavior just like in V1) go to Sites Workspace and edit the default documents section.
