I would like to request that the "Surround selection on..." set be extended to include angle braces <
Now, with C++11 in VS2012, I find that I am often converting new CLASS_NAME(args...) to make_shared<CLASS_NAME>(args...), and it would be nice to highlight the class name and press < in order to surround it (I keep making this mistake, actually, since it seems very natural).
I also find this useful with #include "header" - because I sometimes need to convert between quoted header and < > header.

| Of course, this could just be extended to an open-ended interface, where we list start/end tokens, and anytime there is a highlight, and we press the start token, the surrounding takes place. This would then be very customizable - in case some folks hate certain ones but like others - but maybe too hard considering # (or it is an exception of some sort)... |

If you highlight and cut the class name you want to surround, you can create a simple VA snippet with a one or two character shortcut that enters the text:
make_shared<$clipboard$>
not quite the same as what you are asking for, but more flexible, since you are not limited to just the surrounding angle brackets.
For changing the #include lines, a couple of IDE macro's have been worked out and posted here for this, one for VC6 and one for newer IDE's
