Right now, in VS, all controls are always shown. I think MD does the
correct filtering.
I think the list is hardcoded, so if some are missing, we probably need
to know to add them.
You can add a custom control in the xml, and it will show up as a box in
the designer that you can interact with. However, you cannot put it in
the toolbox yet.

I see that there are a number of controls in the toolbox in the designer

* Are the controls filtered in anyway? For example, is there a way to
only show controls that are suitable for Honeycomb and later? I see
that there is a place where I select which standard look to give the
controls in the designer (ICS, Honeycomb, Gingerbread, Froyo, ....).
Can that be used in anyway to filter these controls somehow? I tried
to change the Android version level settings in the project
properties and the android manifest file, closed and reloaded the
solution, and I found that the toolbox didn't change the controls
inside of it.
* I am guessing that the controls that are loaded are based on a
defined set of controls somewhere. There are some that are missing.
Is there anyway to add to the controls displayed in the toolbox? I
did a right click on the toolbox and tried to "chose items" but did
not see anything besides the standard .NET items. Is a way coming to
add controls to the toolbox?
* I haven't tried this, but what happens if I have a control that
isn't listed in the toolbox that I use in a layout?
