Less than two months ago Silverlight 4 RTW was released and there are no official information about the next version, but I’m pretty sure guys in Redmond are already preparing something cool. If you want to suggest a feature or vote for one, you should check this site. It is the official page for feature suggestions and a lot of features requested there made their way to Silverlight 4.
Currently, the most voted ideas are the following:
- full databinding support
- implement Silverlight on more platforms
- 3D support
- encoding and streaming to Media Server / IIS
- report controls
There are also some very interesting ideas later on the list. My personal favorites are:
- local database support
- JPEG encoder/decoder
- minimize to SysTray in OOB
- HTML control inside browser (not only in OOB) – a must!
- custom mouse cursor images
- multitouch gesture and intertia support
- setting filename for SaveFileDialog
- application patching functionality
- BMP and GIF image support
- vector printing
