I agree. I also wonder if iRex would be interested in making any of the community improvements available as "official" releases. For example, I'm thinking if the community fixed the content lister limitation, would iRex take that and release it as 2.13. That would make a lot of iLiad users happy who aren't savy enough to download/install third party software. It would also be a big PR boost for iRex in that there would be "new updates" without them having to task their resources with it. They'd have to do some testing and create a release, but it's a lot less work if they don't have to do the development.
