I am no longer maintaining NHQA. Mostly because I don't have any interest in doing so.
  
If you want to send a patch that would do that, I would be grateful

Yes, the UI is WPF.
  
I'll have a couple of posts about that today.
  
As for source licensing, probably so, if people really want it.

Is the UI done with WPF ?
  
  
As mentioned above:
  
"The backend itself is structured following the zero friction mode"
  
  
Please share when you have time!
  
  
Will you include a license that includes the source ?

Now for these companies a 200$ price tag is a 'normal' license cost per developer. 
  
  
So in my eyes 200$ is surely not to much.
  
  
My irritation goes to those (and it is not just here, you will see them everywhere) people that never want to pay for anything, even if they most likely can afford it ;) You cannot expect everybody to do everything for free, they have to earn a living too, just be happy with what you do get for free.
  
  
And I am sure that if indeed you cannot pay and you are truly using it for Open Source and you are contributing to the community, then you might be able to find a sponsor for it. Hey maybe even Oren would give you a break.

If it was "world-priced" at $50 then he potentially earns much less money since the developers in emerging market countries are unlikely to buy it anyway and you now have to sell 4x the quantity to make up for the price drop.

First I believe Ayende was asking for feedback and I was making a suggestion. I did not say “$200 is too expensive”.
  
  
Secondly while we are on the topic "$200 is a bargain". 
  
Well thats $200US correct? Well $200USD is relative to your locality. Taking into account exchange rates and average income for developers that can be a large amount of money for some countries. For example india or Malaysia. Now I am not pretending to have a solution to this but when pricing software that is targeted at a global audience you should consider what your global audience can afford.
  
  
Thirdly “cheaper for open source”. 
  
Many open source projects like to make use of various tools, addins and other software. Whenever you choose a tool to help facilitate development of an OSS you create a barrier of entry. The reason is that, ideally, all contributors will have access to this tool. The larger the cost the higher the barrier or entry. For an example: I have seen some projects recently who state in their guidelines “No resharper warnings in code”. So if I don’t have resharper I cant contribute? 
  
  
Finally I would pay $200 USD. Even though with the GEC and the drop in our dollar it will now cost me almost 30% more than it would have couple of months ago.

Why has everything to be free or very cheap? Open source is great, but look at how much he is already giving to the community, not just the tools/utilities but also all the sharing of knowledge. Stop whining, if you like the tool and want to use it just pay the small fee, it’s not like he is ripping you off.

That was actually the question. Why not OSS? NH would benefit from having a tool like this.
  
  
Or maybe, you plan to support other ORMappers as well?

I don't actually have this type of information when I am capturing the queries. And since I want to remain DB independent, I am not likely to be able to get it.
  
If this will be an important feature, I'll add this, but for now, I am focusing on giving high level view, not necessarily all the details
