Thanks for the work you're doing, it's pretty exciting! I hope MSFT remains committed to this project.

A) This is only a terminal, which isn't really more useful than opening a WSL window, I want to be able to debug python easily. I don't really know how the python debugging protocol works, so I'm not sure if stdin/out is enough, but even if it is enough there's some glue code missing to make this trivial, I need to have a binary that can take the same arguments as python and translate windows paths to WSL paths. And then the Python VS code tools also have some pretty cool Jupyter/IPython integration; I'm not sure that will just work with an executable that pretends to be python. Would be cool if the people working on VS code bits were thinking about WSL, rather than users having to come up with individual hacks.

2) Cool, I assumed backlog meant "not going to happen", will be great if it gets anywhere. Though I'm also interested in OpenGL for graphics; I wanted to run OpenAI's gym project, but that needed OpenGL for rendering. Not necessarily expecting you to write an X server, but would be cool if you could cooperate with or fund a project like Xming or https://github.com/kpocza/LoWe or something.
