Developing Sandboxed solutions

If you are familiar with the new feature available in SharePoint 2010 for Sandboxed solutions, you probably already know that one of the restrictions/limitations with using Sandboxed solutions is that they do not support Visual Web Parts.  Given that Visual Web Parts were introduced with the release of Visual Studio 2010 for SharePoint 2010, this is definitely a HUGE disappointment.

Fortunately, though, Microsoft has released a Power Tool to address this issue.  http://visualstudiogallery.msdn.microsoft.com/8e602a8c-6714-4549-9e95-f3700344b0d9/

With the release of the Visual Studio 2010 SharePoint Power Tools, you can now create a Sandboxed-compatible Visual Web Part as well as improved support for Sandboxed compilation.
