Spark View Engine and Visual Studio

Question

I'm working on a project that is using the Spark View Engine, and I am finding the lack of Visual Studio support frustrating.

Is there anything that gives C# and Spark Intellisense in the views?

Anything that helps with refactoring? so that if I rename a C# property, this change gets reflected in the View?

If you're using VS 2010 - you can take a look at SparkSense. It's also available within Visual Studio's Extension Manager for an easy install. It has its limitations - but you can try it out and see if you like it.
