I know that the keyword expansion feature is not currently supported in VSTS, but I'm looking for a way to write a custom keyword expansion feature. Does anyone know of a way that it could be done?

You could write a checkin policy that handles keyword expansion. You won't be able to insert the changeset # because that's determined by the server. Should work fine for $history, $author, etc. though. Lots of examples can be found on blogs: http://www.google.com/search?num=20&hl=en&lr=&safe=off&q=+site%3Ablogs.msdn.com+checkin+policy&btnG=Search
