Which platform doesn't? Have Microsoft or Google never baked any features into Windows or Android that were provided by third-party apps at first?<p>How do people even expect consumer operating systems to evolve these days?

Until some enterprising company comes along, offers to share a patent with these developers for their developments... and then sues the shit out of Apple, Google, and Microsoft. Can't wait for that shit storm, and you can see it on the horizon. It's calm.
