My CF8 wish list

The CF8 flour is in the mix and on its way to the oven. Now that we’ve been asked to dream big, so I will be stating my own wish list here.

  • Better charts. CF charts are clunky. Something sexy should make my blood boil, and my purse thicker from saving money on charts components
  • Man, we gotta reduce the flash form bloat
  • A custom preloader would be lovely. So also is attachable style sheets
  • Some days, CF and Flex should be husband and wife
  • More DB drivers
  • XML DB driver? It would be very cool if CF can natively manipulate XML like a DB
  • Dynamic DSN

May a lot more. If you have yours, you can state it here too.
