We are considering to support a "create class" refactoring in situations like this, probably as part of create from usage:

Out of interest: what is VS Auto Tags? Is it a Visual Studio extension or a default feature? Can you please post a screenshot about how it works? Or if it's an extension, maybe a link to it would be cool
Hover over the Dog and a smalll blue underscore appears , click on it and the context menu occurs
I have always assumed they are VS standard . The only significant add in is VAX , even the Productivity Power Tools are disabled to show this and this is a new PC so no "long lost legacies".
I have seen them referred to as Smart Tags maybe there is an offiical name that I don't know of.
They seem to the equivalent of the inverted triangle VAX Refactor icon
They appear when "useful things" are available
You notice its doing exactly what I am suggesting , offering to create the "Missing" class on the fly.
This is in VS2010 Ultimate but I am sure I saw it in VS2010 Pro as well before I upgraded.
