Would be awesome. Although, as said on IRC, we _could_ go for 2.0 as a 
build requirement only, if someone objects/cannot install mono 2.0. That 
would leave linq out in the rain but would give us type inference and 
object initializers, for example.

Not me. Would be great to update (and I have some deprecation warning 
patches waiting in that case).
