I would like to see the messages (and their content) that are currently sitting in a queue waiting to be delivered. Does such a tool exist? Or should I write my own solution for this?

The new version of Service Bus Explorer supports browsing messages in a Queue without dequeueing them.

It makes use of the new Peek feature in Service Bus SDK 2.0

QueueClient queueClient = QueueClient.Create("myQ");
BrokeredMessage message = queueClient.Peek();
