> Is that going to be an easier merge conflict to figure out?

Yes, because now you never have to open the file by-hand, you can fix the conflict in VS (usually showing that a file is missing with the warning "!" sign, instead of making their solution files unopenable)

> Can you open a *.sln file on Linux?

Yes, via MonoDevelop.
