Are there any plans to support edit-and-continue of XAML in future VS versions?

It would make life so much easier!

XAML Edit and Continue is now possible in VS 2015 for UWP apps. This should be available with the "Windows 10 Anniversary Update".

More info and a demo of the upcoming feature can be viewed here https://channel9.msdn.com/Events/Build/2016/B853

This is completely impossible.

When you run a WPF app, the XAML is parsed in the constructor into a visual tree, which is then displayed as a form.

Edit & Continue would mean re-creating the visual tree, which would break any code in the form.
