GeneralWorking on a utility library... Pin

And I want ideas for things to put in it.

(I am building the library with C#)

So far I have:

* An abstract implementation of IExtenderProvider
* Extensions for ISynchronizeInvoke
* A Work-In-Progress Multiple-Backend settings system
* Missing Enumerable.[Min/Max] overloads that take a custom IComparer<T> or a Comparison<T> and a few other extensions
* A class to modify the DLL Search Path
* Generic overloads to Marshal.Copy
* A class to wrap a native library and get exported methods and variables from it
* A class representing an exported variable which can read/write various types.
* Some basic extensions to the String type, as well as extensions to cast a string to a particular type (e.g. int)

There is also an internal RecursionGuard class, that throws an exception if recursion happens (it's not very complex, just a list with ID strings and two methods, one to enter a no-recursion section, and one to exit said area). I will make that public and document it if there is interest in it.

And yes, this library will have full XML documentation comments for all public and protected types, methods, properties, etc.
What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?

The metaphorical solid rear-end expulsions have impacted the metaphorical motorized bladed rotating air movement mechanism.

Do questions with multiple question marks annoy you???
