It is not so that Apps2SD is needed for space only - some apps (like voice applications and some readers) expect this functionality to be present, otherwise install fails. I have memory on my device completely re-partitioned to save me the troubles of using Link2SD which does not belong to Android proper - would like to stay as close to original code as possible.

Yes, I've seen the video and yes - theoretically it is possible to do something like that for most if not all dragging and scrolling. However doing it properly and cleanly requires very heavy lifting inside of Android framework. Benefits of this effort are not that great - for most people who simply would like to read.

It is much easier to do on application to application basis - the way Freescale originally intended.
