TouchDevelop is a research project, and as of now there are no plans of full-scale productization.
The webapp supports all programming language features of the WP7 app (and some more ;-). Not all library APIs are implemented though (some are obvious - it doesn't make phone calls - some are just still missing).
If something didn't work with the libraries for you, let us know!
It is possible to define record types (with fields but not methods). You can also define libraries operating on these. Libraries can be parametrized, much like functors in ML (but without the heavy type system). The interaction between records and libraries is not fully worked out yet, but we're working on it, time permitting.
Note that TD is not an object-oriented language - there is no inheritance or subtyping. I myself intend to keep it this way :) Still, we want to have something akin to C#'s extension methods as far as the syntax goes (i.e., method lib1->m(x:t,y:number) could be invoked as x->t(10)).
I can understand not wanting inheritance or subtyping, but then I think the language needs at least first class functions. Extension methods would be great. Perhaps you could have typeclasses like in Haskell?
